Article Abstract

Deficiency of Adenosine Deaminase 2 (DADA2) patients presenting with primary immunodeficiency are at risk of uncontrolled EBV infection and secondary malignancies including EBV-related lymphoproliferative disorders (LPD). This paper describes the first case of EBV related diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in a patient with DADA2 and uncontrolled EBV infection. Consideration should be given to monitoring for EBV viraemia and to preventative EBV specific therapy in DADA2 and patients with at risk primary immunodeficiencies. A type I interferon (IFN) gene signature is associated with DADA2 though its association with immune dysregulation is unclear.

X-linked lymphoproliferative disease type 1 (XLP1) is a rare, often fatal primary immunodeficiency (PID) caused by mutations in the SH2D1A gene that result in an uncontrolled immune response to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. However, a small number of patients do not encounter EBV exposure and exhibit clinical and immunological features similar to those of common variable immunodeficiency (CVID), leading to delayed diagnosis. Herein, we report the case of a 13-year-old boy diagnosed at eight years of age with CVID after he experienced recurrent pneumonias, hypogammaglobulinemia, and chronic bronchiectasis.

Introduction: Esophageal cancer (EC) is a highly lethal malignancy characterized by the uncontrolled proliferation of cancerous cells within the esophagus. Despite recent advancements in therapeutic strategies, the prognosis remains poor, underscoring the urgent need for novel preventive and therapeutic approaches. Notably, several oncogenic viruses have been implicated in EC pathogenesis, prompting the exploration of epitope-based vaccines through immunoinformatics.

Unlabelled: Infectious diseases caused by pathogenic microorganisms and tumors arising from uncontrolled cell proliferation can be intricately linked through the lens of viromics. This study aimed to delineate the landscape of viral infections in gastric cancer, focusing on the relationship between pathogenic microorganisms and tumorigenesis. By conducting transcriptomic sequencing of gastric cancer tissues, we identified gastric cancer-associated viruses from raw transcriptomic data.

Oncogenic viruses typically manipulate host cellular mechanisms to drive tumorigenesis. They exploit pioneering transcription factors to modify gene expression, enabling uncontrolled proliferation. These viruses alter chromatin accessibility and induce chromatin remodelling, disrupting DNA repair and promoting viral genome integration.

Burkitt lymphoma (BL) is an aggressive non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma characterised by chromosomal translocations involving the MYC gene, leading to its overexpression and driving uncontrolled proliferation. BL is categorised into endemic, sporadic, and immunodeficiency-associated subtypes, each with distinct clinical and epidemiological features. TSPAN32, a member of the tetraspanin family, plays a key role in B cell development and immune regulation.
