Abstract:

Objective To improve the recognition on clinical phenotype and genotype of severe combined immunodeficiency.Methods The clinical data and gene detection results of severe combined immunodeficiency were analyzed retrospectively.Results A 1-month-6-day-old girl was found to have non-growing body mass for over half a month. The infection was complicated after hospitalization and it was difficult to control. Blood routine examination showed that the absolute value of neutrophile granulocytes fluctuated within (0.34-5.51)×109/L. No significant abnormality was noted in bone marrow puncture. The therapeutic effects of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor was unsatisfactory, and lymphocyte subsets conformed to T-B-NK+ immunophenotype. The complete exon sequencing showed that the maternal missense mutations of RAG1 gene satisfied c.1229G>A (p.Arg410Gln) and c.2428A>G (p.Ile810Val) and paternal c.2005 G>A (p.Glu669Lys) missense mutation of RAG1 gene, the former was firstly reported in China, and the second was the first case reported internationally. Conclusion The gene mutation spectrum of SCID in China and abroad has been expanded.

Key words: severe combined immunodeficiency, RAG1 gene, missense mutation
