" /> Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, familial, 3 - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, familial, 3;

Symbol : FHL3;

CISMeF acronym : FHL3; HLH3; HPLH3;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : HLH3; HPLH3;

Description : Secretion of the contents of cytolytic granules at the immunologic synapse is a highly regulated process essential for lymphocyte cytotoxicity. This process requires the rapid transfer of perforin (170280)-containing lytic granules to the target cell interface, followed by their docking and fusion with the plasma membrane. Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HPLH) is a genetically heterogeneous condition characterized by defective cytotoxicity. For a more detailed description of HPLH, see 267700.;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the unc-13 homolog D gene (UNC13D, 608897.0001);

Laboratory abnormalities : Low fibrinogen levels; Hypertriglyceridemia;

Prefixed ID : #608898;
