Abstract

Hydroxychloroquine Does not Affect CTLA-4 Expression in LRBA Deficiency: Case Report from Siblings with LRBA Deficiency

Highlights

  • ShCoawsnetoRinehpiboirt tthe immune response by binding to the CD86 with higher affinity and removing it from the cell surface

  • Soluble IL-2 receptor levels decreased to 2228 pg/mL (Figure 2) and CRP decreased to normal level (0.5 mg/dL)

  • LRBA deficiency is a rare genetic disease that leads to immune dysregulation due to defective intracellular trafficking of CTLA-4 [7]

LRBA deficiency leads to decreased CTLA-4 (cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4) expression on T regulatory cells (Tregs) due to defective intracellular trafficking of CTLA-4 protein [1,2].
