Abstract (Expand)
Mediterranean fever (FMF) is a genetically determined autoinflammatory disease transmitted mostly by an autosomal recessive mechanism and caused by point mutations of the MEFV (Mediterranean FeVer) … gene. The aim of this study was to evaluate the expression of inflammasome genes (p65, Casp1, MEFV, and NLRP3) in patients with FMF compared to controls to understand the changes playing a key role in disease development. We found altered expression levels of the full-length MEFV isoform as well as Casp1 and p65 in FMF patients versus controls. This, once again, highlighted the significance of inflammasome genes in terms of FMF.
