Added comment: Single patient with severe disease secondary to B. pseudomallei requiring ECMO. Adjunctive IFN-γ administration as replacement for its failed induction by IL-18 promptly led to clearance of B. pseudomallei and subsequent weaning of support. Novel homozygous missense mutation in CASP4, at exon 7 c.1030C > T. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of the patient and her parents showed reduced IFN-γ production, notably to IL-12 stimulation, and decreased IL-18 in response to LPS and increased IL-1B. Cloned cells show impacts on CASP4 activation and pyroptosis.
