SHM Require Helper T cells and CD40:CD40L interactions affinity maturation is observed only in antibody
responses to T-dependent protein antigens extensive somatic mutation occurs in germinal centers
The mechanisms underlying somatic mutation in Ig genes are partially understood

Both CSR and SHM require transcription through target S and V regions on V(D)J exons and DNA editing, which requires two crucial enzymes expressed by germinal center B cells, AID and UNG
Although representing unique modification processes, CSR and SHM are interdependent and nonredundant

Hyper IgM syndrome
immunologic phenotype presenting with Low IgG, IgA, and IgE levels with normal or increased IgM levels
The term hyper-IgM is a misnomer (IgM levels are not necessarily high)
The relative excess of IgM is due to a defect in class-switch recombination (CSR)
In certain cases somatic hypermutation (SHM) is also affected

elevated serum IgM level possesses both low sensitivity and specificity as a screening marker for HIGM syndrome
J Allergy Clin Immunol.2011 Dec;128(6):1380-2
‘‘B-cell class-switch defect’’-International Union of Immunological Society Committee on Primary Immunodeficiencies decided in 2005 to abandon the term ‘‘HIGM syndrome’’ and to refer to the specific gene defect- This decision has been maintained in all classifications of primary immune deficiencies that have been published since 2006

CD40 ligand deficiency (type1) CD40 L
Gene at chromosome Xq26 trimeric form on the cell surface (CD40 binding domain on the cell
surface, short transmembrane domain and cytoplasmic tail) Expression of the molecule is very tightly regulated occurring only
transiently upon activation of CD4+ve T lymphocytes
X-linked recessive Occasional symptomatic female carriers with skewed
lyonization have been reported

no response to protein antigens some IgM anti-polysaccharide antibodies, including
isohemagglutinins, can be produced

CD40 ligand deficiency (type1) Impaired CD40L/CD40 interaction leads to defective T
cell interactions with monocytes/dendritic cells with consequences as
(1) impaired full maturation of dendritic cells, (2) impaired IL-12 production by dendritic cells and
macrophages, (3) affected T cell priming, resulting in an abnormal cellular
immune response
significant susceptibility to opportunistic infections cannot be controlled by Ig substitution therapy adversely affect prognosis

rare cause of HIGM autosomal recessive (AR) inherited disease
clinical and immunological findings are identical to those reported in CD40L deficiency

Mutations of NEMO Crosslinking of CD40 activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway CSR mutations in the IKK gene coding for NEMO
NEMO (nuclear factor-κB essential modulator) : ○ scaffolding protein that binds to IKKα and IKKβ, two kinase
proteins○ required for NF-κB activation and nuclear translocation
ectodermal dysplasia associated with immunodeficiency (EDA-ID) EDA-ID : X-linked trait

Mutations of NEMO this syndrome can be characterized by
normal to increased IgM levels low levels of serum IgG and IgA, and (abnormal CSR) impaired antibody responses, particularly to polysaccharide
antigens
NF-B is involved in a number of T-cell and Toll receptor signalling pathways bacterial and opportunistic infections
present with bacterial (S. pneumoniae, S. aureus, and often atypical mycobacteria) infections
Crohn disease is a frequent complication

Immunoglobulin replacement therapy All type (HMI defect) should be initiated on diagnosis
reducing markedly the incidence of bacterial infections reducing the likelihood of developing lymphoid hypertrophy reducing the likelihood of the patient developing bronchiectasis
and/or chronic sinusitis
If complications are usually established before initiation of replacement therapy : may then progress despite treatment

Management : HCT
Pure humoral deficienciesbone marrow transplantation, cannot generally
be justified given the fact that these are pure humoral deficiencies showing good response to Ig therapy
Theoretically, such an approach might be justified in patients with uncontrollable autoimmune manifestations or in those who have developed lymphoid malignancies

Prevention of Primary manifestations Antibiotic prophylaxis
Prophylaxis for PCP is indicated (combined)○ high risk of developing PCP during first two years of life
Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole orally or pentamidine by intravenous or inhalation therapy
Additional antibiotic prophylaxis should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis
Routine childhood immunizations killed vaccines may be safely administered

Take home message A thorough history and a high index of suspicion are
required to make the diagnosis of hyper-IgM syndrome, especially if IgM levels are within the normal range
Timely diagnosis is critical in many of these diseases to minimize end-organ damage, especially in cases in which early bone marrow transplantation might be beneficial (eg, CD40L deficiency)
![Page 66: Hyper Ig M syndrome](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062705/556df382d8b42a1e138b4968/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
Take home message Studies on patients with HIGM syndrome can now identify
the genetic cause in around 75–80% of cases The remainder is currently undiagnosed at the genetic level
Treatment options depend on the type of defectdefective CD40 signalling requiring consideration of
corrective therapy intrinsic B cell defects mostly require immunoglobulin
replacement therapy alone
