CUI: C0027947
Disease: Neutropenia
Neutropenia
0.500 GeneticVariation disease LHGDN Most CN mutations fall within predicted transmembrane domains and lead to excessive deposition of NE in granules, whereas SCN mutations usually disrupt the AP3 recognition sequence, resulting in excessive transport to the plasma membrane. 15059607 2004
CUI: C0027947
Disease: Neutropenia
Neutropenia
0.500 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Disease-causing mutations of neutrophil elastase disrupt the interaction with N2N, impair proteolysis of N2N and Notch2, and interfere with Notch2 signaling, suggesting defective proteolysis of an inhibitory form of Notch as an explanation for the alternate switching of cell fates characteristic of hereditary neutropenia. 14673143 2004
CUI: C0027947
Disease: Neutropenia
Neutropenia
0.500 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE By phenotypic analysis of affected relatives and carriers of the same ELA2 mutations, we showed that the expression of neutropenia in CN and SCN may be either homogeneous or variable according to the type of mutations, suggesting different pathogenetic mechanisms. 14962902 2004
CUI: C0027947
Disease: Neutropenia
Neutropenia
0.500 GeneticVariation disease LHGDN These observations provide further insight into potential mechanisms by which NE mutations cause neutropenia and suggest that abnormal protein trafficking and accelerated apoptosis of differentiating myeloid cells contribute to the severe SCN phenotype resulting from the G185R mutation. 15657182 2005

CUI: C0027947
Disease: Neutropenia
Neutropenia
0.500 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE The risk of infection is roughly inversely proportional to the circulating polymorphonuclear neutrophil count and is particularly high at counts below 0.2 G/l.When neutropenia is detected, an attempt should be made to establish the etiology, distinguishing between acquired forms (the most frequent, including post viral neutropenia and auto immune neutropenia) and congenital forms that may either be isolated or part of a complex genetic disease.Except for ethnic neutropenia, which is a frequent but mild congenital form, probably with polygenic inheritance, all other forms of congenital neutropenia are extremely rare and have monogenic inheritance, which may be X-linked or autosomal, recessive or dominant.About half the forms of congenital neutropenia with no extra-hematopoietic manifestations and normal adaptive immunity are due to neutrophil elastase (ELANE) mutations. 21595885 2011
CUI: C0027947
Disease: Neutropenia
