Variants (also known as mutations) in the PIGA gene cause almost all cases of PNH. Variants in the PIGT gene cause the rare, inflammatory form of the condition. The proteins produced from both genes are involved in a multistep process that connects particular proteins to the surface of cells. These proteins are attached to the cell by a specialized molecule called GPI anchor and are known as GPI-anchored proteins. The PIG-A protein helps produce the GPI anchor, and the PIG-T protein helps attach the GPI anchor to proteins. Anchored proteins have a variety of roles, including sticking cells to one another, relaying signals into cells, and protecting cells from destruction.

In people with PNH, variants of the PIGA gene occur during a person’s lifetime and are present only in certain cells. These changes, which are called somatic variants, are not inherited. In contrast, people with the inflammatory form of the condition inherit one altered copy of the PIGT gene. However, for the condition to occur, they need to also acquire a somatic variant that deletes the other copy of the PIGT gene and other genes around it.

PNH occurs when a somatic variant of the PIGA gene or PIGT gene occurs in a blood-forming cell called a hematopoietic stem cell. Hematopoietic stem cells are found mainly in the bone marrow and give rise to the various types of blood cells. These genetic variants severely reduce or eliminate the function of the PIG-A protein or PIG-T protein, respectively, in affected cells. Blood cells that arise from the abnormal stem cells also have the variant and are abnormal. As the abnormal hematopoietic stem cells multiply, more abnormal blood cells are formed, alongside normal blood cells produced by normal hematopoietic stem cells.

Cells with no PIG-A protein do not produce GPI anchor, and therefore are missing GPI-anchored proteins at the surface. Cells with no PIG-T protein produce GPI anchor but cannot attach proteins to it. As a result, these cells have GPI anchor on the surface, but no attached proteins. Two important GPI-anchored proteins on red blood cells protect them from being broken down by the immune system. Without these proteins, the abnormal red blood cells are prematurely destroyed, leading to hemolytic anemia. Studies show that GPI anchors with no attached proteins trigger inflammation in the body, leading to the inflammatory features in individuals with PIGT-related PNH. It is unclear how changes in the PIGA or PIGT gene affect other types of blood cells.

In individuals with either form of PNH, the proportion of abnormal blood cells can vary. It is unclear why the population of cells that grow from the hematopoietic stem cell with a PIGA gene variant may be larger than the population of normal cells in some affected individuals and smaller in others. Research suggests that certain abnormal white blood cells that are also part of the immune system may mistakenly attack normal blood-forming cells, in a malfunction called an autoimmune process. In addition, abnormal hematopoietic stem cells in people with PNH may be less susceptible than normal cells to a process called apoptosis, which causes cells to self-destruct when they are damaged or unneeded.

In abnormal blood cells with PIGT gene variants, the somatic variant in the PIGT gene deletes other nearby genes that control cell growth and development. Researchers suggest that loss of these genes allows the abnormal cells to grow or survive better than normal cells, increasing the proportion of abnormal blood cells in the body. The proportion of abnormal blood cells affects the severity of the signs and symptoms of PNH, including the risk of hemoglobinuria and thrombosis.

","key":"forms","title":"What causes Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria?"},{"bodyHtml":"

People with PNH have sudden, recurring episodes of symptoms (paroxysmal symptoms), which may be triggered by stresses on the body, such as infections or physical exertion. During these episodes, red blood cells are broken down earlier than they should be (hemolysis). Affected individuals may pass dark-colored urine because of the presence of hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying protein in blood. The abnormal presence of hemoglobin in the urine is called hemoglobinuria. In many, but not all cases, hemoglobinuria is most noticeable early in the morning, upon passing urine that has accumulated in the bladder during the night (nocturnal).

The premature breakdown of red blood cells results in a shortage of these cells in the blood (hemolytic anemia), which can cause signs and symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, abnormally pale skin (pallor), shortness of breath, and an increased heart rate (tachycardia). People with PNH may also be prone to infections because of a shortage of white blood cells (leukopenia).

Abnormal platelets associated with PNH can cause problems in the blood clotting process. As a result, people with this disorder may experience abnormal blood clotting (thrombosis), especially in large abdominal veins; or, less often, episodes of severe bleeding (hemorrhage).

Individuals with PNH are at increased risk of developing cancer in blood-forming cells (leukemia). In some cases, people who have or have been treated for another blood disease called aplastic anemia may develop PNH. In a small number of affected individuals, the signs and symptoms of PNH disappear on their own.

A very rare form of PNH involves abnormal inflammation in addition to the typical features described above. Inflammation is a normal immune system response to injury and foreign invaders (such as bacteria). In people with this rare form of PNH, the immune response is turned on (activated) abnormally and can cause recurrent aseptic meningitis (which is inflammation of the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord that is not related to infection); a red, itchy rash (known as hives or urticaria); joint pain (arthralgia); or inflammatory bowel disease. The inflammatory disorders usually begin earlier than the blood cell problems.
