Case report - infections
Eldest of 3 siblings - non consanguinous • “septic pustules” at birth, IV antibiotics • 3 yrs - abscess over scapula • 3-6 years - more abscesses over shoulder, hip, knee, cheek • 6 yrs - septic arthritis • 7 yrs - four more abscesses 10/29/2008 CH IRAK-4 deficiency

Case: Pathogens
Organisms • Pseudomonas aeruginosa • Staph. aureas • Strep. pyogenes All from separate sites at separate times • Septic arthritis - Strep. Pneumoniae • Meningitis/septicaemia - Shigella 10/29/2008 CH IRAK-4 deficiency

Case: Shigella sonnei meningitis/septicaemia
• Outbreak in local water supply • Only individual to be systemically unwell • D & V for 5 days before becoming • Acutely unwell “ septic shock”; in ITU • Shigella sonnei cultured from stool, 10/29/2008 CSF, blood CH IRAK-4 deficiency

Progress with time
• 1974 Born • 1974 - 84 11 episodes of serious sepsis • 1984 Meningitis/ septicaemia • 1984 - 94 3 episodes of sepsis: cellulitis, abscess, osteomyelitis • 1994 - 00 2 abscesses, less severe 10/29/2008 CH IRAK-4 deficiency 9 • 2000 - 04 No infections
Acute phase - poor
• Neonatal abscess - Neutrophils 1.02 x 109/l
• Septic arthritis - no fever, ESR 7, WBC 7.6 • Abscess -15 mls pus, ESR 5, Neutrophils 3.1 • Meningitis/septicaemia - ESR 10, WBC 7.2 • Osteomyelitis (14yr) - Neutrophils 5.1, ESR 35, CRP 6 mg/l • Cellulitis knee (16yr) -WBC 5.9, CRP 6, ESR 10/29/2008 CH IRAK-4 deficiency 10 3

Tested for IL-6 production
Casanova’s lab - Horst von Bernuth
• Whole blood
• Stimulation IL1 / SAC/ LPS / poly I:C stimulation
• No pro-inflammatory cytokines [IL-6]
• PMA - normal • TNF - normal IL-10 secretion

IRAK-4 deficiency
• Homozygous IRAK4 mutation • Mutation 877 C to T leading to a premature stop Q 293 X in kinase domain • ? amorphic - IRAK4 mRNA /protein by Northern and Western blots - in
progress
• ? recessive, heterozygous members - being tested
