This study reports that a novel gain-of-function mutation in TMEM173, combined with polymorphisms in TMEM173 and IFIH1, results in a distinct clinical phenotype with features of SAVI, including alopecia and photosensitivity.

This study found that hair follicle stem cells from hidradenitis suppurativa patients showed alterations in cell cycle regulation and DNA replication, potentially linking genetic predisposition to the skin inflammation characteristic of the disease.

This study identified a novel G207E STING mutation causing a distinct phenotype involving alopecia, photosensitivity, and thyroid dysfunction, and suggests that common polymorphisms in TMEM173 and IFIH1 may influence disease presentation.

This study found that among COVID-19 patients, a higher presence of the G allele in the IFITM3 rs12252 polymorphism correlates with increased inflammatory markers and disease severity, noting higher ESR, CRP, Fibrinogen, LDH, and D-dimer levels in severe cases compared to mild ones.

This case report suggests that tofacitinib may effectively manage symptoms of AGS7 in a patient with an IFIH1 mutation, though further studies are needed to confirm its long-term safety and efficacy.
