Biallelic mutations in any of the four mismatch repair genes MSH2, MSH6, MLH1 and PMS2 result in one of the most aggressive childhood cancer predisposition syndromes, termed constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) syndrome. In addition to a very high tumour risk, the CMMRD phenotype is often characterised by the presence of signs reminiscent of neurofibromatosis type 1. Although paediatric systemic lupus erythematosus (pSLE) has been reported so far in three patients with CMMRD, it has not been considered a diagnostic feature of the syndrome. We report here two additional female patients with pSLE and CMMRD due to biallelic pathogenic variants in MSH6. Hence, there are a total of five out of approximately 200 (2.5%) currently reported patients with CMMRD that also have pSLE, suggesting pSLE should raise the suspicion of a diagnosis of CMMRD, especially if supported by additional indicative features

Background: Evidence suggests that DNA damage is implicated in the development of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Objective: Investigate the possible association of polymorphisms in the DNA repair genes XRCC1 and XRCC3 with SLE and its clinical and laboratory features. Methods: This is a case-control study comparing the polymorphisms in the DNA repair genes XRCC1 and XRCC3 in SLE patients and control individuals. Genotyping for DNA repair genes was performed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism in 76 patients and 82 healthy control individuals. Results: Our data indicated that the genotype frequencies in patients with the XRCC1 Arg399Gln and XRCC3 Thr241Met polymorphisms were similar to those observed in the control group (p > 0.05). However, the frequencies of the 399Gln allele (p = 0.023, OR = 0.58, 95% CI = 0.36–0.93) and 241Met allele (p = 0.0039, OR = 0.59, 95% CI = 0.36–0.98) were significantly lower in the patients than those in the control subjects. Conclusion: We demonstrated that 399Gln and 241Met alleles may play a protective role in SLE susceptibility.
