PW03-021 - HSCT in mevalonate kinase deficiency [PDF]

open access: yesPediatr Rheumatol Online J, 2013
Mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) has a wide spectrum and severity of clinical manifestation. Patients with mutations in MVK gene leading to complete lack of the enzyme, suffer from the most severe form of disease, also known as mevalonic acydosis, whereas defects with preserved, but insufficient enzyme activity present with autoinflammatory syndrome ,

Molecular and cellular consequences of mevalonate kinase deficiency.

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease
Mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder associated with recurrent autoinflammatory episodes. The disorder is caused by bi-allelic loss-of-function variants in the MVK gene, which encodes mevalonate kinase (MK), an ...

PW02-020 - Colitis revealing mevalonate kinase deficiency [PDF]

open access: yesPediatr Rheumatol Online J, 2013
Hyperimmunoglobulinemia D (HIDS) is the less severe form of mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) caused by recessive inherited mutation in the mevalonate kinase gene (MVK). HIDS is characterized by febrile attacks, often associated with transient digestive manifestations, such as abdominal pain, diarrhea and vomiting.

Mevalonate kinase somatic mosaicism and bigenic genotypes may explain heterogeneity in mevalonate kinase deficiency [PDF]

open access: yesPediatr Rheumatol Online J, 2015
Results Case 1 A pediatric case with splenomegaly, cervical lymphoadenopathy, failure to thrive and anemia, was found to have two pathogenic MVK variants, p.V250I and p. L315G*51, and the Q705K variant on the NLRP3 gene, considered a functional polymorphism.
