Disease ID | Source | Name | Description |
618534 | OMIM | Immunodeficiency 64 (IMD64) | An autosomal recessive primary immunodeficiency characterized by recurrent bacterial, viral and fungal infections, variably decreased numbers of T cells, deficiencies of B and NK cells, and increased susceptibility to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. Patients may develop lymphoproliferation or EBV-associated lymphoma. Some patients may develop features of autoimmunity. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
152700 | OMIM | Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) | A chronic, relapsing, inflammatory, and often febrile multisystemic disorder of connective tissue, characterized principally by involvement of the skin, joints, kidneys and serosal membranes. It is of unknown etiology, but is thought to represent a failure of the regulatory mechanisms of the autoimmune system. The disease is marked by a wide range of system dysfunctions, an elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and the formation of LE cells in the blood or bone marrow. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Aberrantly spliced isoforms and/or diminished levels of RASGRP1 are found in a cohort of SLE patients raising the possibility that dysregulation of this signaling protein contributes to the development of autoimmunity in a subset of SLE patients. |
