Identification of pathogenic MEFV variants in Korean patients with familial Mediterranean fever via whole-genome sequencing: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Rheumatic Diseases
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autoinflammatory disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of fever, serositis, and arthritis. It is caused by variants in the MEFV gene, which encodes the pyrin protein.

Pathways of Epithelial Barrier Breakdown and Remodeling in Esophageal Organoids by Commonly Used Surfactants

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
This study shows that SDS and CAPB directly impair esophageal epithelial barrier integrity in primary EoE‐derived models. SDS induces stronger inflammatory, oxidative stress, and keratinization responses than CAPB. Both surfactants promote epithelial remodeling and partial epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT), with CAPB showing a distinct ...

Genetic loss of murine pyrin, the Familial Mediterranean Fever protein, increases interleukin-1β levels. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is an inherited autoinflammatory disorder characterized by unprovoked episodes of fever and inflammation. The associated gene, MEFV (Mediterranean Fever), is expressed primarily by cells of myeloid lineage and encodes ...

The relation of MEFV gene variants to clinical phenotype and selected laboratory markers in Egyptian patients with familial Mediterranean fever

open access: yesJournal of the Arab Society for Medical Research
Background/aim Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autoinflammatory disease, with a high prevalence in the Mediterranean region. It is brought out by variants in the MEFV gene.

AA amyloidosis in the four historical monogenic autoinflammatory diseases: Clinical burden and insights from a retrospective referral‐centre study

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background AA amyloidosis (AAA) remains a life‐threatening yet largely preventable complication of monogenic autoinflammatory diseases (AIDs). Methods We retrospectively described patients with AAA secondary to one of the four historical monogenic AIDs (familial Mediterranean fever [FMF], cryopyrin‐associated periodic syndrome [CAPS ...

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

open access: yesPLoS 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,

Mediterranean fever gene mutations in patients with idiopathic mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Nephropathology, 2018
Background: Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is the most common inherited autoinflammatory disease. Kidney involvement in FMF is usually attributed to secondary amyloidosis. Non-amyloid glomerular involvement has also been reported.

Apigenin Alleviates Pyroptosis in Lung Adenocarcinoma Cells by Modulating TNF‐α/NF‐κB Signaling and AIM2 Inflammasome Activation

open access: yesThoracic Cancer, Volume 17, Issue 17, September 2026.
Apigenin attenuated CCCP/FeSO4‐induced injury and pyroptosis‐associated molecular changes in A549 cells by suppressing TNF‐α/NF‐κB signaling and reducing AIM2/ASC‐associated protein expression. Integrated network pharmacology, molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations, and LUAD transcriptomic analyses further prioritized TNF and AIM2 as ...

Cost-saving approach with screening of selected variants in genetic diagnosis in Turkish pediatric familial Mediterranean fever patients: a single center longitudinal study

open access: yesThe Turkish Journal of Pediatrics
Background. The aim of this study was to investigate whether a short exon screening consisting of selected variants could confirm the diagnosis in patients with a preliminary diagnosis of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), thus providing a cost-saving ...
