Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autoinflammatory disease caused by MEditerranean FeVer gene (MEFV) mutations. In Japan, patients with FMF have been previously reported, including a mild or incomplete form. Several factors are presumed to contribute to the variable penetrance and to the phenotypic variability of FMF. We conducted the current study to investigate the correlation of varia...
Background Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is an autosomalrecessive disorder characterized by recurrent attacks of fever and serositis. It is common in eastern Mediterranean population. There are only few FMF patients in Slovenia and Macedonia and the mutation carrier rate is not known. So far, over 80 disease associated mutations have been identified in MEFV gene; the most common are M694V,...
We report on a familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) patient homozygous for p.M694V in the MEFV gene who developed chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) leading to an uncontrolled and fatal inflammatory syndrome. Plasma levels of IL-6 and IL-18 were found to be very high, as compared to healthy controls and CMML-free FMF patients.Our study unveils the interplay between two different disorders inv...
Methods We analyzed clinical, laboratory and genetic data of MEFV gene of all periodic fever patients who were followed at the University Children’s Hospital Ljubljana from the beginning of 2006 to the beginning of 2013. In addition, free genetic testing was provided for suspected FMF patients with periodic fevers from the countries of the CSEE region. Genetic testing was performed in the Genet...
Introduction PFAPA syndrome (acronym for periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis and cervical adenitis) is the most common cause of periodic fever in childhood. It is considered part of the wide family of the autoinflammatory diseases, but a genetic or molecular marker hasn’t been identified yet, therefore, its etiology is still unknown. Diagnosis is essentially based on clinical crite...
Objective Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by recurrent attacks of fever and peritonitis, pleuritis, arthritis or an erysipelaslike skin disorder. The disease may present at any age, more than 80% of patients being symptomatic by the age of 20 yr. Its main long-term complication is amyloid A (AA) amyloidosis, a severe manifestation with poor pro...
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autoinflammatory disorder with autosomal recessive inheritance, characterized by recurrent fever and episodes of serositis. The condition is known to be caused by mutations in the MEFV (Mediterranean FeVer) gene, located in the short arm of chromosome 16. While more than 310 sequence variants in the MEFV gene have been described to date, the diagnosis is...
Introduction FMF is considered an autosomal recessive autoinflammatory syndrome caused by single gene (MEFV) mutations. Recently, it has been known that also heterozygous mutation carriers can suffer from a mild or incomplete form of FMF, named FMF-like disease. Among Armenians, who have relatively high carrier rate of MEFV mutations, single mutation has been detected in about 1/5 of symptomati...
Introduction The importance of MEFV gene protein, Pyrin/Marenostrin (P/M) in the inflammatory pathway is well established. P/M is expressed in neutrophils, eosinophils, monocytes, dendritic cells and synovial fibroblasts. There are many MEFV transcripts which are generated by alternative splicing events including deleted exons 2,3,4,5,7 and 8 in several combinations or individually. Some of the...
