P01-004 – MEFV genes and FMF [PDF]

Pediatric Rheumatology, 2013
Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is a hereditary autoinflammatory disease with autosomal recessive inheritance pattern often seen in the Turks, Arabs, Armenians and Jews people characterised by recurrent episoded of fever and polyserositis and rash. Recently the definitive diagnosis of FMF determines by MEFV gene analysis.

P03-001 - PFAPA and MEFV genes [PDF]

Pediatric Rheumatology, 2013
Marshall Syndrome or PFAPA is an inflammatory periodic disease characterized by periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis and cervical adenitis. Restless, headache, abdominal pain, vomiting, hepatosplenomegaly and arthralgia are less common symptoms seeing in this disease.

Patient with FMF and Triple MEFV Gene Mutations [PDF]

Medical Archives, 2015
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is the most common auto-inflammatory disease with monogenic (MEditerranean FeVer -MEFV- gene) inherited pattern. It mainly affects ethnic groups living along the eastern Mediterranean Sea: Turks, Sephardic Jews, Armenians, and Arabs [1]. Today FMF is not rare disease in other Mediterranean ethnicities, such as Greeks,

The Role of NLRP1, AIM2 and MEFV Inflammasomes in the High-Intensity Interval Training of Individuals With Obesity. [PDF]

Immunology
This study shows that 8 weeks of high‐intensity interval training (HIIT) modulate inflammasome‐related gene expression in individuals with obesity. HIIT increased AIM2, MEFV, CARD16 and CARD18 expression, with CARD16 upregulation supporting reduced inflammation through inhibition of caspase‐1 activation and lower IL‐1β levels.

Reimann's "Habitual Hyperthermia" Responding to Hormone Therapy. [PDF]

, 2016
A 25-year-old woman presented with fever of unknown origin, exhibiting malaise and low-grade fevers in evenings. These fevers exhibited a pattern of starting mid-menstrual cycle with resolution around the onset of menses, matching a pattern of "habitual ...

MEFVgene is a probable susceptibility gene for Behçet's disease

Scandinavian Journal of Rheumatology, 2005
Behçet's disease (BD) is a rare, chronic, multisystem inflammatory disorder. The prevalence of BD is higher in the Middle Eastern and Mediterranean populations. Another chronic inflammatory disease, familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), is also known to be highly prevalent in these populations. The prevalence of BD is higher in the FMF patient population

Decreased MEFV gene expression in rheumatoid arthritis patients

Genetics and Molecular Research, 2015
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a major cause of adult chronic inflammatory arthritis and an autoimmune disease of unknown etiology in which the inflammatory pathology involves T cell activation. Genetic mutations in the Mediterranean fever (MEFV) gene, encoding pyrin, influence the severity of RA, but the underlying mechanisms are not completely ...

Missense mutations in the MEFV gene are associated with fibromyalgia syndrome and correlate with elevated IL-1beta plasma levels. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND:Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS), a common, chronic, widespread musculoskeletal pain disorder found in 2% of the general population and with a preponderance of 85% in females, has both genetic and environmental contributions.
