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 ...

Inflammation, genetic background and longevity [PDF]
Ageing is an inexorable intrinsic process that affects all cells, tissues, organs and individuals. Due to a diminished homeostasis and increased organism frailty, ageing causes a reduction of the response to environmental stimuli and, in general, is

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.

Glycoproteomic studies of IgE from a novel hyper IgE syndrome linked to PGM3 mutation [PDF]
International audienceGlycans serve as important regulators of antibody activities and half-lives. IgE is the most heavily glycosylated antibody, but in comparison to other antibodies little is known about its glycan structure function relationships.

Abstract Generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is a severe autoinflammatory keratinization disease (AiKD) characterized by acute flares of widespread sterile pustules and high fever. GPP is potentially life‐threatening. Recently clarified genetic predisposing factors for GPP suggest that the excessive activation of innate immune pathways in the skin ...

Genetic and epigenetic dysregulation of innate immune mechanisms in autoinflammatory diseases
Dysregulation and hyperactivation of innate immune responses can lead to the onset of systemic autoinflammatory diseases, caused by inborn genetic errors alone, or in combination with non‐genetic factors. Innate immune memory (trained immunity) is physiologically beneficial, but can become maladaptive, perpetuating chronic inflammatory activation. Here,

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).

Síndromes Auto - Inflamatórias [PDF]
As síndromes auto-inflamatórias são constituídas por um grupo heterogéneo de patologias isoladas e caracterizadas ao longo dos últimos 15 anos, graças aos avanços marcados no conhecimento do genoma humano e ao desenvolvimento de técnicas laboratoriais ...
