Overview
The autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome is a disease caused by the defect in FAS-mediated apoptosis.
Causes
- Most of the cases autosomal dominant, heterozygous germline mutation in FAS. [1]
- Somatic FAS mutation is the second most common cause.
- Minority of cases mutations in the genes encoding FAS ligand, caspase 10, caspase 8, and neuroblastoma RAS.
- One-third of patients have unidentified genetic defects.
