Científicos descubren la existencia de causas genéticas e inmunológicas de la COVID-19 grave

Oct 1, 2020adminprincipal

Más del 10 % de pacientes que desarrollan COVID-19 grave, algunos de ellos jóvenes y previamente sanos, tienen anticuerpos “erróneos” que atacan al propio sistema inmunológico y, al menos, otro 3,5% son portadores de mutaciones genéticas que afectan a su respuesta inmunológica. En ambos grupos el resultado es básicamente el mismo: los pacientes presentan un

LIGHD describes the second patient with BCL10 deficiency

Jun 4, 2020adminprincipal

Our laboratory reported in 2014, a child with broad combined immunodeficiency (CID) who was homozygous for a private BCL10 allele to have complete inherited human BCL10 deficiency. In the present study, we report the second CID patient with BCL10 mutation who was homozygous for a BCL10 variant (R88X), previously reported as a rare allele in

DNA double-strand break repair through homologous recombination in fibroblasts from a patient with autosomal recessive complete BCL10 deficiency is impaired. Given the relevance of double-strand break repair in the onset of cancer, it is important to highlight that homologous recombination is BCL10-dependent in human fibroblasts. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30660642
