ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the history of a Wiskott- Aldrich syndrome (WAS) family with normal mean platelet volume (MPV), analyse the WASP gene mutation of to better understand its clinical characteristics.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A four- generation WAS family histories of 22 members were investigated. Peripheral blood samples were collected from propositus and his mother to analyse all exon mutations of WASP gene using sanger sequencing.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The MPV of both propositus and his elder brother were normal. The patient's clinical score was 5, antibodies to PM-Scl, PCNA and PO were positive with very high level of ASO, the patient co- suffered from autoimmune disease, anemia, abnormal renal function, fungal infection and scleritis. A homozygous mutation (C>T) was found at 173 bp of exon 2, corresponding to amino acids Pro (P) 58 abnormally changed to Leu (L). His mother was the carrier of the mutation. Of 112 blood diseases- related genes, mutation frequencies of CBL, CREBBP, DNM2 and ADAMTS13 were higher than normals.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>This was the first report the phenotype 173C>T mutation of WASP without eczema, but with normal MPV and autoimmune disease in Chinese, WAS should be recognized earlier and diagnosed correctly by genomic methods.</p>
