Figures

**FIG 1.**
Clinical features, imaging, and histology of relevant tissues in affected patients. A, Frequencies of clinical manifestations in ARPC1B-deficient patients (detailed in Table E8). **B-D**, Diffuse warts, eczema, and skin vasculitis in P7. E, Sialadenitis and lymph node enlargement in P3. *CMV*, cytomegalovirus; GH, growth hormone.

**FIG 2.**
Immune cell abnormalities. A, Representative plots of the altered B-lymphocyte staining (*left panel*), B-lymphocyte percentage (*middle panel*), and CD19 expression (geometric mean fluorescence intensity, *right panel*) in ARPC1B-deficient patients. For CD4⁺ and CD8⁺ T-cell subsets (naive, memory, and effector-memory populations), see Fig E1. B, Treg-cell subset analysis with a representative dot plot showing percentage of Treg cells (CD4⁺CD25RA^posCD127^neg), and Treg FOXP3 and Helios expression. C, FOXP3 and Helios expression of *In vitro* expanded Treg cells from patient and control (lines connect each patient with their own healthy relative used as control). D, FACS plots showing the proliferation of allogeneic T-responder cells (T_resp) measured by cell-trace violet (CTV) dilution. The stimulated and unstimulated T_resp without Treg cells are shown in blue. Treg cells from controls (in gray) and patients (in red) were cultured at different ratios with T_resp cells while stimulated with anti-CD3/CD28. E, Quantification of CD4 and CD8 T_resp-cell suppression by Treg cells. F, NK cells of patients were functionally evaluated against the K562 cell line by CD107A expression experiments. Resting NK cells (left panel) and IL-2–stimulated cells (right panel) were evaluated and compared with 10 healthy controls. All controls are represented by healthy adults. Bars indicate means ± SD, and a star indicates statistical significance as assessed by Mann-Whitney test (P < .05). Stim, Stimulated; unstim, unstimulated.
