| COMMENTS | Multigene analysis for hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), a syndrome char acterized by hyperactivation of the immune system, excessive cytokine secretion and severe systemic inflammation. HLH is classified as familial (FHL) when assoc iated with mutations in specific genes, such as PRF1, UNC13D, STX11, and STXBP2 genes.[PMID: 33746956] Testing is performed for diagnostic, prognostic, and ther apeutic assessment in patients with HLH. |
