✖Disease ID: | 1243 | |
Name: | Deficiency of IL-1 receptor antagonist | |
Associated with: | 0 target | |
1 immuno-relevant ligand |
Synonyms |
DIRA | Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist deficiency | OMPP | sterile multifocal osteomyelitis with periostitis and pustulosis |
Description |
DIRA is a very rare autosomal recessive auto-inflammatory condition caused by homozygous mutation in the IL1RN gene that results in IL-1RA deficiency. It presents neonatally or in infancy with severe skin (erythema, cutaneous pustulosis, plaque formation) and bone inflammation that cause intense, chronic pain. DIRA is responsive to IL-1 blocking therapies such as anakinra, rilonacept, and canakinumab. See Aksentijevich et al. (2009) PMID: 19494218 and Reddy et al. (2009) PMID: 19494219 for case studies and reports of the identification of the genetic mutations(s) that cause DIRA. |

Where available, information is display on the role of the target in the disease; drugs which target the disease and their therapeutic use and side-effects.
If there is mutation data curated in GtoPdb this is indicated, with a link back to the appropriate section on the target detailed view page
Immuno ligand interactions - If available, a table of immuno-relevant ligands is shown. These ligands have been curated as having an association to the disease and possess interaction data with the target in GtoPdb. The approval status of the ligand is shown, along with curator comments and an indication of whether the target is considered the primary target of the ligand.
