Assessment of MEFV Gene Mutations in Exon 10 in Familial Mediterranean Fever Patients from Iranian Azeri and Turkish Population
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), the most frequent of the periodic fever syndromes, is an auto-somal recessive disease, predominantly affecting people of Mediterranean descent, although recently it has been described in many other populations (1-3). Linkage between the gene responsible for FMF (MEFV) and the short arm of chromosome 16 was first shown in 1992. Mediterranean Fever (MEFV) gene ...
متن کاملMEFV mutations in Iranian Azeri Turkish patients with familial Mediterranean fever.
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive autoinflammatory disorder with more than 60 disease-associated mutations in the responsible gene, MEFV. In the present study, we determined 15 MEFV mutations in Iranian Azeri Turkish FMF patients. Five hundred and twenty-four unrelated patients were tested for 15 known mutations in the MEFV gene using amplification refractory mutation...
متن کاملCommon MEFV mutation analysis in Iranian Azeri Turkish patients with familial Mediterranean fever.
OBJECTIVES To identify the frequency and distribution of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) gene (MEFV) mutations among Azeri Turkish patients from northwestern Iran. METHODS One hundred ninety unrelated patients were referred by specialists to the Molecular-Medical Genetic Center of Tabriz. A clinical diagnosis of FMF was made according to published criteria. Mutation screening of the MEFV g...
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 کاملCommon MEFV Mutations in Palestinian Patients with Familial Mediterranean Fever
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive inflammatory disorder caused by mutations in the MEFV gene that encodes the pyrin protein. The disease is relatively common among people originating from the Mediterranean areas. The aim of this study was to determine the common MEFV gene mutations in 270 Palestinian patients diagnosed with FMF. The patients were screened for four com...
متن کاملCommon Mediterranean fever gene mutations in the Azeri Turkish population of Iran.
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disorder primarily affecting the Mediterranean populations. It is characterized by recurrent attacks of fever and inflammation of serosal membranes and gradual development of nephropathic amyloidosis. More than 70 disease-associated mutations have been identified in the Mediterranean fever gene (MEFV) responsible for FMF. The aim of t...
