Cyclic Neutropenia

Common Name(s)

Cyclic Neutropenia, Cyclic Hematopoiesis

Cyclic neutropenia is a rare blood disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of abnormally low levels of neutrophils (a type of white blood cell) in the body. Neutrophils are instrumental in fighting off infection by surrounding and destroying bacteria that enter the body. Symptoms of cyclic neutropenia may include fever, a general feeling of ill health, and/or sores (ulcers) of the mucous membranes of the mouth. Individuals with low levels of neutrophils (neutropenia) are highly susceptible to recurrent infections. Cyclic neutropenia may be inherited or acquired. Some cases are present at birth and appear to occur randomly for no apparent reason (sporadic). Inherited cases appear to be transmitted in an autosomal dominant fashion and caused by mutations in the ELANE gene.

ELANE mutations in cyclic and severe congenital neutropenia: genetics and pathophysiology.
 

Author(s): Marshall S Horwitz, Seth J Corey, H Leighton Grimes, Timothy Tidwell

Journal: Hematol. Oncol. Clin. North Am.. 2013 Feb;27(1):19-41, vii.

 

The 2 main forms of hereditary neutropenia are cyclic (CN) and severe congenital (SCN) neutropenia. CN is an autosomal dominant disorder in which neutrophil counts fluctuate with 21-day periodicity. SCN consists of static neutropenia, with promyelocytic maturation arrest in the bone ...
