Lymphomas were studied in kindreds with autoimmune
lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS; Canale-Smith syndrome), a disorder of lymphocyte homeostasis usually associated with germline Fas mutations. Fas (CD95/APO-1) is a cell surface receptor that initiates programmed cell death, or apoptosis, of activated lymphocytes. Lymphoma
phenotype was determined by immunohistochemistry, frequency of
CD3+CD4 CD8 T-cell-receptor
/ cells by flow cytometry, nucleotide sequences of the gene
encoding Fas (APT1, TNFRSF6), and the percentage of lymphocytes undergoing apoptosis in vitro. Of 223 members of 39 families, 130 individuals possessed heterozygous germline Fas mutations. Eleven B-cell and T-cell lymphomas of diverse types developed in 10 individuals with mutations in 8 families, up to 48 years after lymphoproliferation was first documented. Their risk of
non-Hodgkin and Hodgkin lymphomas, respectively, was 14 and 51 times
greater than expected (each P < .001). Investigation of
these 10 patients and their relatives with Fas mutations revealed that
all had defective lymphocyte apoptosis and most had other features of
ALPS. The tumor cells retained the heterozygous Fas mutations found in
the peripheral blood and manifested defective Fas-mediated killing.
These data implicate a role for Fas-mediated apoptosis in preventing
B-cell and T-cell lymphomas. Inherited defects in receptor-mediated
lymphocyte apoptosis represent a newly appreciated risk factor for lymphomas.
