Excerpt

A new group of autoinflammatory diseases caused by immunoproteasome dysfunction has been recently reported. The mutation in the PSMB8 gene encoding immunoproteasome subunit β type 8 causes a number of clinical syndromes that described as chronic atypical neutrophilic dermatosis with lipodystrophy and elevated temperature (CANDLE) syndrome and Nakajo-Nishimura syndrome (NNS). …
