Severe Congenital Neutropenia Due To G6PC3 Deficiency Case Series of Five Patients and Literature Review
Abstract
\n Glucose-6-phosphate catalytic subunit 3 (G6PC3) deficiency is characterized by severe congenital neutropenia with recurrent pyogenic infections, a prominent superficial venous pattern, and cardiovascular and urogenital malformations, caused by an alteration of glucose homeostasis, with increased endoplasmic reticulum stress and cell apoptosis. We describe five new cases from Mexico, and review 89 more patients reported in the past decade, to delineate the most frequent laboratory and genetic features, their treatment, and outcomes, and to expand the knowledge of syndromic and non-syndromic phenotypes in these patients.
