    Potentially Beneficial Effect of Hydroxychloroquine in a Patient with a Novel Mutation in Protein Kinase C delta Deficiency
    (SPRINGER/PLENUM PUBLISHERS, 2015) ÖZEN, AHMET OĞUZHAN; Kiykim, Ayca; Ogulur, Ismail; Baris, Safa; Salzer, Elisabeth; Karakoc-Aydiner, Elif; Ozen, Ahmet Oguzhan; Garncarz, Wojciech; Hirschmugl, Tatjana; Krolo, Ana; Yucelten, Ayse Deniz; Boztug, Kaan; Barlan, Isil B.
    Protein kinase C delta (PRKCD) has essential functions in controlling B-cell proliferation and apoptosis, development of B-cell tolerance and NK-cell cytolitic activity. Human PRKCD deficiency was recently identified to be causative for an autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome like disorder with significant B-cell proliferation particularly of immature B cells. Here we report a child with a novel mutation in PRKCD gene who presented with CMV infection and an early onset SLE-like disorder which was successfully treated with hydroxychloroquine.
