APECED:
monogenic autoimmune disease
Pärt Peterson
University of Tampere, Finland
University of Tartu, Estonia
APS1 or APECED
• APS1 (autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1)
or APECED (autoimmune polyendocrinopathy
candidiasis ectodermal dystrophy)
• Autosomal recessive inheritance
• More prevalent in some populations such as Finns
(1:25000), Iranian Jews (1:9000) and Sardinians
(1:14400). Very high incidence (1/4400) reported in a
small town Bassa del Grappa, in Northern Italy
• No HLA association
Autoimmune regulator (AIRE) is a gene mutated
in APECED
Clinical Features
• Endocrinopathies
• Chronic mucocutaneous
candidiasis
– Hypoparathyreoidism
• Ectodermal dystrophies
– Addison’s disease
– dental enamel
– Gonadal dysfunction
– nails
– Type 1 diabetes mellitus
– alopecia
– Autoimmune thyroiditis
– vitiligo
– Autoimmune gastritis
• Autoimmune hepatitis
• Keratopathy

Autoantigens in Addison’s
disease
• Steroid 17a-hydroxylase, P450c17
• Steroid 21-hydroxylase, P450c21
• Side-chain cleavage enzyme, P450scc
Thomas Addison
All three P450 enzymes are
active in steroidogenesis in
adrenal cortex. P450c21 is
expressed only in adrenal
cortex, P450c17 and P450scc
are also expressed in gonads

Expression in the Thymus
•The major AIRE expressing tissue is the thymus
•Lower levels of expression are seen in the fetal liver, spleen
and lymph nodes
•In the thymus, AIRE is seen in a distinct subset of cells

Ectopic (promiscuous) expression of
self antigens in thymus
Many tissue specific
autoantigens are expressed
in thymus.
During negative selection, Tcells to these antigens are
deleted.
If antigen is not expressed in
thymus or is expressed in a
different way, this may cause
autoimmunity
From Gotter et al. 2004
Diverse genes expressed in thymic epithelial cells
Tissues specific antigens (pancreas, stomach, brain, eye, liver,
muscle, kidney specific genes)
Expression of genes expressed during fetal stages, pregnancyassociated genes
Expression of male specific genes in females and vice versa
Expression of cancer specific antigens
Conserved in mice and humans
Estimation of 3000 genes (5-10% of known genes) in addition
to basal expression of thymic epithelial cells
AIRE (autoimmune regulator) gene is central in
expressing tissue specific antigens
Aire deficient mice have autoantibodies
and lymphocytic infiltration in multiple tissues

expression in wild-type and

specific genes is lower or

AIRE Interacts with CBP
•AIRE binds CBP at its CH1 and CH3 domains by far
western and yeast two-hybrid assays
•CH1 also binds STAT2 and HIF-1a; CH3 binds E1A and
TFIIB
CBP: cAMP response element
binding (CREB) protein binding protein
CBP is implicated in various
transcriptional responses
regulating growth, differentiation or apoptosis
Belongs to the class of
transcription co-activators
possessing histone acetyltransferase activity (HAT)
and thus have the potential
to regulate the chromatin
structure
From Hottiger and Nabel, 2000
CBP/p300 interacts with many
transcription activators and coactivators

Nuclear Bodies
• Most prominent nuclear bodies are promyelocytic leukemia
(PML) nuclear body or POD (PML oncogenic domain)
• Approximately 0.3 to 1 micrometers in diameter
• Other proteins in nuclear dots are involved in transcription or
suspected in chromatin binding (Sp100, CBP, BLM, p53)
• Function unknown, activation or degradation site?
• Some of the proteins like CBP move in and out.
AIRE Function
AIRE induces the expression of autoantigens that lead to the
elimination of the autoreactive T cells
Thymus
T cell autoreactive to APECED

AIRE
Thymic epithelial cell

Loss of Function
When AIRE is defective, autoreactive T cells escape
selection, and autoimmunity develops
