Course of COVID-19 in patients carrying different MEFV mutations of familial Mediterranean fever
Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is a genetic auto-inflammatory disease. Mutations in the Mediterranean fever (MEFV) gene cause inappropriate immune system triggering, leading to inflammatory episodes in the peritoneum, pleura, and joints.

Frequencies of the Common Mefv Gene Mutations in Adiyaman, Southeast Anatolia, Turkey
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by fever and serosal inflammation. The reasons for the disorder are mutations in the Mediterranean fever (MEFV) gene; the most common of which are M694V, M680I, M694I and

Serum amyloid A and P protein genes in familial Mediterranean fever
Two recent studies have suggested the involvement of serum amyloid A (SAA) and P (APCS) genes in familial Mediterranean fever (MEF). To test the role of SAA and APCS in MEF and MEF-amyloidosis, we studied 17 informative families (15 Armenians, 2 non-Ashkenazi Jews) and 8 MEF patients with amyloidosis using a candidate gene approach. No evidence for any

Mediterranean Fever Gene Mutations in Greek Patients with Behcet’s Disease
It is known that clinical similarities between Behcet's disease and Familial Mediterranean Fever have led to the hypothesis of a common pathogenesis. Familial Mediterranean Fever is caused by MEFV gene mutations coding for pyrin. Therefore, we examined whether these pyrin mutations are also associated with Behcet's disease.Molecular testing for pyrin ...
