MEFV mutations in Northwest of Iran: a cross sectional study
Objective(s):Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of fever accompanied by peritonitis, pleurisy, and arthritis. FMF affects mainly Mediterranean populations and is caused by mutations in the familial Mediterranean fever (MEFV) gene. The aim of this study was to identify the frequency and distribution of MEFV mutations in Irani...
متن کاملMEFV mutations in systemic JIA
Results 2 carrier for M694V and two patients who were homozygote for MEFV mutations. Both of these patients were among the most severe patients in the group. One had an excellent response to etanercept whereas the other was resistant to anti-TNF and other conventional treatments and had only a partial response to thalidomide. Although the number of severe mutations were increased in this small ...
متن کاملCommon MEFV mutations (M694V, V726A, M680I, M694I, and E148Q ) in patients with Behcet\'s disease in Ardabil
Background and objectives: Behcet's Disease (BD) is a rare severe recurrent inflammatory disorder affecting several body organs. Since Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) and BD affect almost a specific population, both diseases can mimic the other clinically, and these two diseases sometimes occur in the same family and the same patient, also due to the high prevalence of BD in Iran and perform...
متن کاملMEFV Gene Profile in Northwest of Iran, Twelve Common MEFV Gene Mutations Analysis in 216 Patients with Familial Mediterranean Fever
Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is a hereditary autoinflammatory disease with autosomal recessive inheritance pattern often seen around the Mediterranean Sea. It is characterized by recurrent episodes of fever and polyserositis and rash. Recently, MEFV gene analysis determines the definitive diagnosis of FMF. In this study, we analyzed 12 MEFV gene mutations in more than 200 FMF patients, pr...
متن کاملMEFV mutations in Japanese rheumatoid arthritis patients.
OBJECTIVE Familiar Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is common among Mediterranean populations, while other populations are rarely affected. The aim of this study was to assess the involvement of MEFV gene mutations among Japanese rheumatoid arthritis patients with or without amyloid A (AA) amyloidosis. METHODS The frequency of the MEFV mutations, which were identified in Japanese FMF patients, was d...
