Two siblings with Majeed syndrome and neutropenia
Majeed syndrome (MS) is a rare monogenic autoinflammatory disease characterized with early-onset chronic non-bacterial osteitis (CNO) and hematological features, particularly dyserythropoietic microcytic anemia.1 It is associated with loss-of-function mutations of the LPIN2 gene on chromosome 18.2 N...

Summary: | Majeed syndrome (MS) is a rare monogenic autoinflammatory disease characterized with early-onset chronic non-bacterial osteitis (CNO) and hematological features, particularly dyserythropoietic microcytic anemia.1 It is associated with loss-of-function mutations of the LPIN2 gene on chromosome 18.2 Neutropenia has been very rarely reported in patients with MS.1 We herein report the first siblings of MS from Türkiye, both of whom had neutropenia. A periodic fever gene panel analysis (including LPIN2, MEFV, MVK, NLRP3, PSTPIP1, and TNFRSF1Agenes) was performed with nextgeneration sequencing and homozygous mutation was detected in exon 4 of the LPIN2 (NM_014646.2) gene; c.589C>T (p. Arg197Ter) in both patients. [...]we herein present the first cases with neutropenia who were homozygous for p. Arg197· mutation in LPIN2 gene. |
