Knockdown of MVK does not lead to changes in NALP3 expression or activation [PDF]
Mutations in the Mevalonate Kinase gene (MVK) are causes of a rare autoinflammatory disease: Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency and its more acute manifestation, Mevalonic Aciduria.

Negative Feedbacks by Isoprenoids on a Mevalonate Kinase Expressed in the Corpora Allata of Mosquitoes [PDF]
Background Juvenile hormones (JH) regulate development and reproductive maturation in insects. JHs are synthesized through the mevalonate pathway (MVAP), an ancient metabolic pathway present in the three domains of life.

Interleukin-1 antagonists in Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency [PDF]
Background Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency (MKD) is one of the autoinflammatory fever syndromes, caused by mutations in the MKD gene. Systemic inflammatory symptoms may be mild to severe leading to early death, and recurrent bacterial infections frequently develop in the disease course. On demand NSAID and steroids are the most commonly used.

Weekly oral alendronate in mevalonate kinase deficiency. [PDF]
Mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) is caused by mutations in the MVK gene, encoding the second enzyme of mevalonate pathway, which results in subsequent shortage of downstream compounds, and starts in childhood with febrile attacks, skin, joint, and gastrointestinal symptoms, sometimes induced by vaccinations.For a history of early-onset corticosteroid-

Pathogenic Variants in Fucokinase Cause a Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation [PDF]
FUK encodes fucokinase, the only enzyme capable of converting L-fucose to fucose-1-phosphate, which will ultimately be used for synthesizing GDP-fucose, the donor substrate for all fucosyltransferases.

The diagnostic challenge of very early-onset enterocolitis in an infant with XIAP deficiency [PDF]
Background: Aggressive course and resistance to treatments usually characterize very early onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEO-IBD). Some VEO-IBD cases are due to monogenic immune defects and can benefit from hematopoietic stem cell transplantation ...
