Résumé

The autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS) is a non-infectious and non-malignant lymphoproliferative disease frequently associated with autoimmune cytopenia resulting from defective FAS signaling. We previously described germline mono-allelic FAS (TNFRSF6) haplo-insufficient mutations associated with somatic events, such as loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on the second allele of FAS, as a cause of ALPS-FAS. These somatic events were identified by sequencing FAS in DNA from double negative T cells (DN T), the pathognomonic T cell subset in ALPS, in which the somatic events accumulated.
