STAT3[3] Gain of function in src-like homologue 2 (SH2) domain of STAT 3, frequently affecting codons Y640 or D661[3]. Codons N647I[4],K658S[4], and K658F[5] are also affected Other [6] Common [7] D, P, T WHO, NCCN STAT3 mutation has been associated with statistically significant neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and reduced numbers of most normal residual blood-leukocyte subsets[5]

STAT3 mutations are associated with a worse prognosis and reduced overall survival [3][8]

Patients with STAT 3 mutation required treatment more frequently when compared to patients with STAT3 wild type[9]

One prospective study showed a predictive response to methotrexate therapy in a small group of patients with STAT3 Y640F mutated genotype[10]

STAT3 mutation can also be seen in other T-cell lymphomas including hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma[11]

17% of patients with STAT3 mutations, had multiple mutations in the STAT3 gene, solely in cytotoxic CD8+ or NK cells.[12]

STAT5B [3]
Gain of function src-like homologue 2 (SH2) domain of STAT5.

Mutations include[13]:

N642H

Y665F

Q706L

S715F

T628S

P685R

V712E mutation of STAT5B is in the transactivation domain[13]

Mutations in the coiled-coil domain: CCD, Q220H [13]

Mutations in the DNA binding domain: DBD, E433G/K [13]

Mutations in the inter-domain region: P702A [13]

Other [14] Rare [1] D,P,T WHO, NCCN N642H mutation (associated with more aggressive disease)[15][16]

Clones can acquire multiple STAT5B mutations [13]

STAT5B mutations can also be seen in other T-cell lymphomas including hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma[11]

N642H mutation is associated with CD3+/CD56+ phenotype[16]

STAT5B mutations are more common in CD4+ T-LGLL than in CD8+ T-LGLL [13][17]

TNFAIP3 [3] Loss of function

TNFAIP3 itself is a NF‐κB target gene[22]

In one study three of four of the patients with non‐synonymous TNFAIP3 alterations also harbored a STAT3 mutation (p  = 0.004)[4]

TET2 [3] Loss of function [23] Other [24] Common [20] N/A WHO Found to be the most prevalent mutation in myeloid neoplasm or myeloid clonal hematopoiesis coexisting with T-LGLL [25]

Epigenomic Alterations

Epigenetic inactivation of JAK/STAT pathway inhibitors

  • SOCS3 has a crucial role in regulating STAT3 activation[39]
  • An epigenetic inhibition mechanism to SOCS3 gene is hypothesized[39]
  • KIR3DL1 has been shown to be down-modulated by hypermethylation of the promoter[39]
  • Mutations in KMT2D and TET2 have been found to significantly co-occur with STAT3 mutations[23]

Genes and Main Pathways Involved

Gene; Genetic Alteration Pathway Pathophysiologic Outcome
JAK/STAT[1] Constitutive activation Dysregulation of apoptosis
NK-kB[1] Pathway activation Preventing apoptosis
FAS and FASL[1] Resistance to FAS mediated apoptosis Activation of pro-survival pathways which is postulated to lead to neutropenia
RAS/RAF1/MEK1/ERK[1] Overactive RAS Constitutive activation of RAS and ERK
PI3K/AKT[1] Dysregulation

Genetic Diagnostic Testing Methods

  • Morphologic assessment, flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry
  • PCR to assess for clonality, T-cell receptor (TCR) gene rearrangements
    • TCR gamma (TCRG) gene is rearranged in all cases, regardless of the type of TCR expressed, thus proves clonality[3]
    • Can be helpful in differentiating a reactive lymphocytosis from clonal T-LGL's
      • NK LGL proliferations do not express TCR, making assessment of clonality difficult[1]
      • Expression of activating isoforms of killer immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) can be used as a surrogate marker of clonality in NK LGL[1]
  • Myeloid neoplasms may present with clonal large granular lymphocyte expansion with STAT3/STAT5B mutations. Next generation sequencing can be diagnostically useful in these cases[40]

Familial Forms

No known familiar forms as of yet.

Additional Information

PI3K-Akt has been found to be upregulated in KLRG1- CD8+ T-LGLL. Studies are being conducted to examine treatment with linperlisib.[41]

Myleoid clonal hematopoiesis is associated with the presence of cytopenia in LGLL[25]
