Analysis of MEFV exon methylation and expression patterns in familial Mediterranean fever

BMC Medical Genetics, 2011
Background MEFV mutations and decreased expression level of the gene are related to FMF pathology. DNA methylation at CpG islands is a well-known mechanism for transcriptional silencing.

Unusual presentation of familial Mediterranean fever with co‐existing polyarteritis nodosa and acute post‐streptococcal glomerulonephritis

Clinical Case Reports, 2022
Acute post‐streptococcal glomerulonephritis (APSGN) and polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) may occur simultaneously after streptococcal infection in a child who is previously healthy but carries a Mediterranean fever (MEFV) mutation.

STING inhibition alleviates experimental peritoneal damage: potential therapeutic relevance for peritoneal dialysis

The Journal of Pathology, Volume 267, Issue 2, Page 196-212, October 2025.
Abstract Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a widely used kidney replacement therapy for patients with end‐stage kidney disease. Nevertheless, long‐term exposure to PD fluid can damage the peritoneal membrane, leading to ultrafiltration failure and, ultimately, discontinuation of PD.

IgA Vasculitis Across the Ages: Is It Time for a Precision Medicine Approach?

ACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2025.
IgA vasculitis (IgAV; formerly Henoch‐Schönlein purpura) is a systemic small vessel vasculitis most commonly affecting the skin, gut, joints, and kidneys. Nephritis is the most concerning complication for all ages because it carries the risk of progression to irreversible end‐stage kidney failure.

FLASH Irradiation Modulates Immune Responses and Accelerates Lung Recovery: A Single‐Cell Perspective

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 34, September 11, 2025.
Single‐cell RNA sequencing reveals distinct immune responses to FLASH versus conventional dose rate irradiation in early radiation‐induced lung injury. FLASH irradiation reduces Ccrl2⁺ neutrophil infiltration, activates CD4⁺ CD40L⁺ Th cells, restrains pro‐inflammatory Mefv⁺ monocytes, and enhances epithelial repair via TGF‐β signaling, underscoring its

Genetic variation in the familial Mediterranean fever gene (MEFV) and risk for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

PLoS ONE, 2009
Background and aimsThe familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) gene (MEFV) encodes pyrin, a major regulator of the inflammasome platform controlling caspase-1 activation and IL-1beta processing. Pyrin has been shown to interact with the gene product of NLRP3,
