The role of regulatory T cells in familial Mediterranean fever (FMF)

Clinical Rheumatology, 2012
The role of regulatory T cells (T-regs) in familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) was never evaluated. Preliminary studies that we have conducted suggested a rise in the number of regulatory T cells after FMF attacks reaching a maximal level at 7 days. The aim of this study was to evaluate the percentage and activity of regulatory T cells in FMF.

MEFV Mutations in Cases with Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) [PDF]

, 2015
Ailesel Akdeniz ateşi (FMF), MEFV genindeki mutasyonların neden olduğu otozomal resesif bir hastalıktır. Bu gen, kromozom 16p13.3'da haritalanmıştır ve özellikle granülositlerde bulunan bir proteini (pirin) kodlamaktadır. Bu çalışmada FMF ön tanısı ile refere edilen 197 olguda MEFV geninde sıklıkla rastlandığı bildirilen E148Q, P369S, F479L, M680I

Assessment of pyrin gene mutations in Turks with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF)

Human Mutation, 1998
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disease clinically characterized by recurrent short self-limited attacks of fever accompanied by peritonitis, pleurisy, and arthritis and can lead to amyloidosis and renal failure in the longer term. It is prevalent mainly in non-Ashkenazi Jews, Armenians, Turks, and Arabs. Due to the lack of

Thoracic and lung involvement in familial Mediterranean fever (FMF)

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2002
Lung involvement in FMF is limited mainly to transient pleuritis during acute attacks. Amyloidosis of the lung is rare and is associated with symptomatic involvement of other organs while remaining subclinical in itself. Vasculitis of the lung in FMF is possible because of the strong association between FMF and a variety of vasculitides.

Blood Oxidative Stress Biomarkers in Patients with Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF)

Aktuelle Rheumatologie, 2009
Interest in the relationship between oxidative stress and inflammation has increased in recent years. Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) represents a suitable autoinflammatory disease model for investigation of this relationship. We aimed to determine blood oxidative stress biomarkers in patients with FMF in both acute attacks and in attack-free ...
