MEFV Mutations in Tunisian Patients Suffering from Familial Mediterranean Fever

Seminars in Arthritis and Rheumatism, 2007
To identify the frequency and distribution of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) gene (MEFV) mutations in Tunisian patients.This study was performed in the Genetic Department of Tunis University Hospital. A clinical diagnosis of FMF was made according to published criteria.

MEFV mutations in Moroccan patients suffering from familial Mediterranean Fever

Rheumatology International, 2011
Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF, MIM 249100) is an autosomal recessive disease mainly affecting patients of the Mediterranean basin. It is an autoinflammatory periodic disorder characterised by recurrent episodes of fever and abdominal pain, synovitis and pleuritis.

Prevalence of the MEFV Gene Mutations in Childhood Polyarteritis Nodosa

The Journal of Pediatrics, 2007
To test the hypothesis that alterations in the Mediterranean fever (MEFV) gene are a susceptibility factor for the development of polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) we investigated the prevalence of MEFV mutations in patients with PAN without any symptoms of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF).Pediatric patients with PAN (n = 29) were enrolled in this study ...

The rate of MEFV gene mutations in hematolymphoid neoplasms

International Journal of Immunogenetics, 2010
SummaryThe aim of this study was to determine the rate of MEFV gene mutations, the gene responsible for familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), in patients with hematolymphoid neoplasm. The rate of the five most common MEFV gene mutations (M694V, M680I, V726A, M694I and E148Q) was determined in 46 patients with hematolymphoid neoplasm.

Prevalence and significance of MEFV gene mutations in patients with sarcoidosis

Scandinavian Journal of Rheumatology, 2015
Sarcoidosis is a chronic granulomatous disease. Pyrin has anti-inflammatory activity in the regulation of inflammasomes and is encoded by the Mediterranean fever (MEFV) gene. MEFV gene mutations trigger the inflammatory cascade and cause familial Mediterranean fever (FMF).

MEFV, TNFRSF1A and CARD15 mutation analysis in Behçet's disease.

Clinical and experimental rheumatology, 2011
Given the pathological similarities between Behçet's disease (BD), Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), TNF receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS) and Crohn's disease (CD) we evaluated the frequency of mutations and polymorphisms in MEFV, TNFRSF1A and CARD15 in Israeli BD patients of either Jewish or Arab descent.Fifty-four BD patients (11 Jews ...

Molecular analyses of MEFV gene mutation variants in Turkish population

Molecular Biology Reports
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive autoinflammatory disease primarily affecting individuals of Turkish, Armenian, Arab, and non-Ashkenazi Jewish descent, caused by mutations in the MEFV gene. The aim of this study was to review the common genotype distributions of MEFV variants and mutations in the Turkish population and ...
