Vacuoles, E1 Enzyme, X-linked, Autoinflammatory And Somatic Syndrome - Vexas,

Scientists use clues in the human genome to discover new inflammatory syndrome. Researchers have discovered a new inflammatory disorder called vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory and somatic syndrome (VEXAS), which is caused by mutations in the UBA1 gene. VEXAS causes symptoms that included blood clots in veins, recurrent fevers, pulmonary abnormalities and vacuoles (Unusual cavity-like structures) in myeloid cells. Source 9q.

Now THAT's a way to dig into the unknown! My compliments to thos who did this study, that's an area of medicine that has a lot to learn and improve, props!
