Rare Autoinflammatory Diseases
Systemic autoinflammatory diseases are disorders caused by dysregulation of the innate immune system leading to systemic inflammation. Since the first gene had been identified causing Familial Mediterranean Fever, the most common hereditary systemic autoinflammatory disease, advances in genomic techniques and awareness of the diseases have led to ...

The monogenic autoinflammatory syndromes are conditions caused by mutations of genes coding for proteins that play a pivotal role in the regulation of the inflammatory response. Due to their genetic nature, most of these disorders have an early onset.

Implications of combined NOD2 and other gene mutations in autoinflammatory diseases
NOD-like receptors (NLRs) are intracellular sensors associated with systemic autoinflammatory diseases (SAIDs). We investigated the largest monocentric cohort of patients with adult-onset SAIDs for coinheritance of low frequency and rare mutations in ...

Management of Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency: A Pediatric Perspective
Background: Mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) is an inborn error of metabolism leading to a syndrome characterized by recurrent inflammation. This clinically manifests itself as fever and can be accompanied by gastrointestinal symptoms, oral ulcers ...

Dysregulation of the cGAS-STING Pathway in Monogenic Autoinflammation and Lupus
One of the oldest mechanisms of immune defense against pathogens is through detection of foreign DNA. Since human DNA is compartmentalized into the nucleus, its presence in the cytosol heralds a potential threat. The cGAS-STING pathway is one of the most

Interleukin‐18 signaling promotes activation of hepatic stellate cells in mouse liver fibrosis
Interleukin‐18 signaling promotes activation of hepatic stellate cells in mouse liver fibrosis. Abstract Background and Aims Nucleotide‐binding oligomerization domain‐like receptor‐family pyrin domain‐containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation has been shown to result in liver fibrosis.
