Objective:To establish the detection method for the interferon stimulated genes(ISGs), calculate the cut-off value and test it in clinical practice.Methods:Patients with type I interferonopathies who were admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from November 2017 to September 2021 were chosen as the disease group, and healthy children were included as the control group. A total of 18 children were in the disease group, including 8 males and 10 females, with a median age of 8.5 years for the first test. From them 25 blood specimens were collected. A total of 28 healthy children, aged 1 to 18 years, with a median age of 10.5 years, including 15 males and 13 females, were included in the control group. Blood samples of 34 controls and 18 interferonopathies patients were collected, then total RNA extraction and cDNA synthesis were performed. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction assays were run in duplicate to measure the expression of six ISGs: interferon induced protein with tetratricopeptide repeats 1 (IFIT1), interferon α inducible protein 27 (IFI27), interferon induced protein 44 like (IFI44L), interferon stimulated genes 15 (ISG15), sialic acid binding Ig like lectin 1 (SIGLEC1), and radical S-adenosyl methionine domain containing 2 (RSAD2). The relative abundances of each target transcript was normalized to the expression level of β-Actin and OAZ. The median fold change of the six ISGs was used to create an interferon score (IS) for each individual. Samples with abnormal expressions were removed and the cDNA mix of the remaining samples was used as a calibrator to calculate the IS. We define an abnormal IS as being greater than+2 standard deviations above the mean of controls. Differences in IS between groups were compared using t-test or Mann-Whitney U-test. Results:The mean IS of controls was 1.046, standard 0.755, and the cut-off value was 2.556. A total of 25 samples from 18 interferonopathies patients were tested. The mean value was 27.010 with a 15/18 abnormality rate. Compared with the control group, IS in patients was significantly higher, t=4.247( P=0.000 1). The accuracy, precision, sensitivity, and specificity were 91.30% (42/46), 7.47%(0.084/1.124), 15/18, and 96.43% (27/28), respectively. Conclusion:This study provides a new and reliable method for clinical screening and dynamic monitoring of type Ⅰ interferonopathies by detecting ISGs expression and creating an IS.

BACKGROUNDEvidence shows that ezrin plays an important role in the development of some human malignancies. But the mechanism by which ezrin may affect tumor cell invasion and metastasis remains unclear.
METHODSIn this study, the expression of ezrin was verified in osteosarcoma (OS) cells and tissues by comparison with normal bone cells and tissues using Western blotting. OS-MG63 were transfected with pcDNA3.1-ezrin or pGenesil-1/shRNA-ezrin and the stably transfected cells were selected with G418 to yield the ezrin cell line. The OS-MG63 tumor cells were delivered by tail vein to female BALB/c to develop pulmonary metastasis model in vivo. Ezrin was identified as a direct target of miR-183 via a luciferase reporter carrying the 3'-untranslated region of ezrin. Migration assays and invasion assays were done with the transwells. Signaling pathway was studied by Western blotting and/or inhibitor.
RESULTSEctopic overexpression of ezrin in OS cell line MG63 promoted tumor cell invasion and migration. Consistent with this, knockdown of ezrin inhibited tumor cell invasion and migration. Similar results were obtained in the experimental metastasis model in vivo. We identified ezrin as a direct target of miR-183. What is more, ectopic expression of ezrin could induce the expression of N-cadherin and enhance the activity of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling.
CONCLUSIONCollectively, these results suggest that ezrin as a direct target of miR-183 promotes the aggressiveness of OS via increased N-cadherin and activating ERK signaling.

Objective:
To explore the clinical and immunological features, gene mutations, treatment and prognosis in patients with activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase δ syndrome (APDS) caused by PIK3CD gene heterozygous germline mutation.
Method:
The data of clinical, immunological phenotype, treatment, and prognosis of 15 patients with APDS, who visited Children′s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, and Shenzhen Children′s Hospital from June 2014 to November 2016, were collected and analyzed.
Result:
Of the 15 patients, 11 were males, remaining 4 patients were females. The median age of disease onset was 1 year, and median age at diagnosis was 4 years and 4 months. All patients had the de novo heterozygous germline mutation in PIK3CD (c. 3061G>A, p. E1021K). The common initial symptoms were respiratory infections, including pneumonia (12 cases) , bronchiectasis (5 cases). Other common clinical manifestations were recurrent and chronic diarrhea (11 cases), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and/or cytomegalovirus (CMV) viremia (10 cases), hepatosplenomegaly (13 cases), and lymphadenopathy (10 cases). The main immunological features were increased IgM (11 cases), decreased IgG (6 cases), decreased numbers of CD4+ T cell (7 cases) especially naïve CD4+ T cell (9 cases), reduced numbers of B cells (11 cases) particularly naïve B cells (9 cases), increased numbers of transitional B cells (5 cases) and CD8+ terminally differentiated effector memory T cells (5 cases). After 1-29 months follow up, 13 of the 15 cases remain survived, of whom 5 cases received regular intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy, with reduced frequency of infections and improved severity of infections; of whom 3 cases received oral rapamycin therapy at the dosage of 1 mg/ (m2·d) and with a decrease in nonneoplastic lymphoproliferation.
Conclusion
E1021K is a hotspot for mutation in the PIK3CD gene in patients with APDS. Regular IVIG can improve their quality of life. Targetel treatment with rapamycin could mitigate hepatosplenomegaly.

A 15-year-old female was referred to the hospital with intermittent fever, where multiple systemic abnormalities were found, such as splenomegaly, secondary hypersplenism, retinitis pigmentosa, and ectodermal dysplasia. Medical history revealed that she had suffered recurrent respiratory infections, blurred vision at night, and dysplasia of teeth and nail beds since childhood. Then she was suspected to be experiencing ROSAH syndrome, a rare disease newly recognized in recent years, which was finally confirmed by gene sequencing results. During a course of treatment with tumor necrosis factor inhibitors, recurrent fever with elevated inflammatory markers reappeared, and the child developed headaches. To guide the comprehensive treatment and improve the patient's quality of life, the multidisciplinary team in Peking Union Medical College Hospital discussed together and directed the following treatment.
