Impaired Control of Epstein–Barr Virus Infection in B-Cell Expansion with NF-κB and T-Cell Anergy Disease
B-cell expansion with NF-κB and T-cell anergy (BENTA) disease is a B-cell-specific lymphoproliferative disorder caused by germline gain-of-function mutations in CARD11. These mutations force the CARD11 scaffold into an open conformation capable of stimulating constitutive NF-κB activation in lymphoc...

description | B-cell expansion with NF-κB and T-cell anergy (BENTA) disease is a B-cell-specific lymphoproliferative disorder caused by germline gain-of-function mutations in CARD11. These mutations force the CARD11 scaffold into an open conformation capable of stimulating constitutive NF-κB activation in lymphocytes, without requiring antigen receptor engagement. Many BENTA patients also suffer from recurrent infections, with 7 out of 16 patients exhibiting chronic, low-grade Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) viremia. In this mini-review, we discuss EBV infection in the pathogenesis and clinical management of BENTA disease, and speculate on mechanisms that could explain inadequate control of viral infection in BENTA patients. |
