MYELOPEROXIDASE DEFICIENCY: SINGLE CENTER EXPERIENCE

Objective: Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a hemoprotein expressed in azurophilic granules of neutrophils and lysosomes of monocytes. It is caused by mutations in the MPO gene on chromosome 17 and is estimated to affect 1:2000-4000 people. It is the most common inherited defect of phagocytes. Microbial kil...

It is caused by mutations in the MPO gene on chromosome 17 and is estimated to affect 1:2000-4000 people. It is the most common inherited defect of phagocytes. Microbial killing is impaired in patients with MPO deficiency, but most patients are asymptomatic, except for diabetic patients. In this article, we aimed to present our patients diagnosed with primary MPO deficiency. Methodology: During the investigation for the etiology of neutropenia in the hematology department of our hospital, patients who were diagnosed with MPO deficiency were examined. In the evaluation of the patients, it was observed that the neutrophil count in the hemogram printout and the counted neutrophil count in the peripheral smear were inconsistent. We performed MPO staining with FCM from the peripheral blood samples of the patients and we found that the neutrophils were MPO negative. Results: A 1-day-old male patient has no additional disease (c.608A>C H mutation). C.578G>C mutation was detected in the follow-up due to ANA+ in a 6.5-year-old female patient. A c.2031-2A>C mutation was found in the 18-year-old patient who was being followed up with the diagnosis of Granulamatous Polyangiitis and his sister. A c.493del mutation was detected in an 11-year-old patient who was diagnosed with ITP 5 years ago. The noval mutation was detected in the patient followed up with the diagnosis of retinoblastoma. Conclusion: MPO deficiency may occur primarily as well as secondary. A number of point germ line mutations cause primary MPO deficiency. Most patients asymptomatic without an increase in infection. Severe infectious complications were not observed in any of our patients. We wanted to emphasize that MPO deficiency should also be kept in mind in patients whose neutropenia etiology was investigated.Özlem ARMAN BİLİRNamık Yaşar ÖZBEKElsevierarticleDiseases of the blood and blood-forming organsRC633-647.5ENHematology, Transfusion and Cell Therapy, Vol 43, Iss , Pp S57-S58 (2021)
