Additional Information:

Description: (OMIM) Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome is a heritable disorder of apoptosis, resulting in the accumulation of autoreactive lymphocytes. It manifests in early childhood as nonmalignant lymphadenopathy with hepatosplenomegaly and autoimmune cytopenias (summary by Dowdell et al., 2010).

Clinical Description OMIM Canale and Smith (1967) described a childhood syndrome of lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly associated with autoimmune hemolytic anemia and thrombocytopenia.

Sneller et al. (1992) reported 2 unrelated girls with a lymphoproliferative/autoimmune syndrome. The first patient developed cervical ...

Molecular genetics OMIM - ALPS1A Due to Mutations in the FAS Gene

In 5 unrelated patients with ALPS1A, 1 of whom was reported by Sneller et al. (1992), Fisher et al. (1995) identified heterozygous mutations in the FAS gene ...

Diagnosis GeneReviews The diagnosis of autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS) is based on a constellation of clinical findings, laboratory abnormalities, and identification of mutations in genes relevant for the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 6 (Fas) pathway of apoptosis. ...
Clinical Description GeneReviews Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS) can be considered a prototypic disorder of defective lymphocyte homeostasis [Sneller et al 1992, Fisher et al 1995, Rieux-Laucat et al 1995]....
Genotype-Phenotype Correlations GeneReviews ALPS-FAS. Although the death domain (DD) of ALPS — the intracellular domain of Fas that connects cell surface-expressed Fas to the intracellular (death) signal transduction pathway — is a mutational hotspot, genotypes resulting from mutations in any domain of Fas lead to the same clinical lymphoproliferative and autoimmune phenotype of ALPS. Lymphomas, in contrast, seem thus far to be associated only with mutations affecting the intracellular domains of Fas, though independent confirmation is required [Straus et al 2001]....
Differential Diagnosis GeneReviews The main considerations in the differential diagnosis for autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS) are other immunodeficiency disorders characterized or complicated by lymphoproliferation, autoimmune disease, and lymphoma. These include the following:...
Management GeneReviews To determine the presence and extent of lymphoproliferation and/or autoimmunity in an individual diagnosed with autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS), the following evaluations are recommended:...
