Hyperimmunoglobulin-D Syndrome in Children: A Review Article
Hyperimmunoglobulin-D syndrome (HIDS) is a rare, autosomal recessively inherited autoinflammatory disease caused by mutations in the mevalonate kinase gene.

Recent Insights into the Pathogenesis of Type AA Amyloidosis
The amyloidoses are a group of life-threatening diseases in which fibrils made of misfolded proteins are deposited in organs and tissues. The fibrils are stable, insoluble aggregates of precursor proteins that have adopted an antiparallel β-sheet ...

The RNA Binding Protein Bcas2 is Required for Antibody Class Switch in Activated‐B Cells
Bcas2 recruits DHX15 and SRSF7 to form a protein complex for the splicing of CSR‐related mRNA at the 5' ss and 3' ss, generating two mature mRNA isoforms, which are ultimately translated into CSR‐related proteins. These CSR‐related proteins bind to DNA associated with antibodies, affecting the DSB repair of the relevant DNA after AID induction, thereby

Background. Mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) is a rare autosomal recessive autoinflammatory disease. Chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) represents another autoinflammatory disorder characterized by sterile bone inflammation.

Abstract A reduced proportion of peripheral class‐switched memory B cells (CSM‐B cells) is presumed to indicate ineffective germinal activity. The extent that this finding corresponds to a plausible germinal center failure pathophysiology in patients not diagnosed with CVID or hyper IgM syndrome is not known.

Mevalonate kinase-deficient THP-1 cells show a disease-characteristic pro-inflammatory phenotype
ObjectiveBi-allelic pathogenic variants in the MVK gene, which encodes mevalonate kinase (MK), an essential enzyme in isoprenoid biosynthesis, cause the autoinflammatory metabolic disorder mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD).

ABSTRACT The term autoinflammatory keratinization diseases (AIKDs) was recently proposed as a unifying concept for diseases characterized by inflammation in the epidermis and upper dermis which leads to hyperkeratosis, caused by genetic perturbations of the innate immune system.
