Disseminated tuberculosis, CMV viraemia & haemophagocytic-lymphohistiocystosis syndrome in an adult patient with anti- IFNγ autoantibodies – case report and brief review

We report a case of an adult female with disseminated tuberculosis, cytomegalovirus viraemia and haemophagocytic-lymphohistiocystosis syndrome associated with neutralizing anti- interferon gamma (IFNγ) autoantibodies demonstrated by absent IFNγ stimulated STAT1 phosphorylation in the presence of pat...

description We report a case of an adult female with disseminated tuberculosis, cytomegalovirus viraemia and haemophagocytic-lymphohistiocystosis syndrome associated with neutralizing anti- interferon gamma (IFNγ) autoantibodies demonstrated by absent IFNγ stimulated STAT1 phosphorylation in the presence of patient sera. A brief review of immunodeficiency caused by anti-IFNγ autoantibodies is also described.
