Revised classification of ALPS

Previous nomenclatureRevised nomenclatureGeneDefinition
ALPS type 0 ALPS-FAS FAS Patients fulfill ALPS diagnostic criteria and have germline homozygous mutations in FAS
ALPS type Ia ALPS-FAS FAS Patients fulfill ALPS diagnostic criteria and have germline heterozygous mutations in FAS
ALPS type Im ALPS-sFAS FAS Patients fulfill ALPS diagnostic criteria and have somatic mutations in FAS
ALPS type Ib ALPS-FASLG FASLG Patients fulfill ALPS diagnostic criteria and have germline mutations in FAS ligand. 
ALPS type IIa ALPS-CASP10 CASP10 Patients fulfill ALPS diagnostic criteria and have germline mutations in caspase 10. 
ALPS type III ALPS-U Unknown Patients meet ALPS diagnostic criteria; however, genetic defect is undetermined (no FAS, FASL, or CASP10 defect).
