Thirty years of control of the mosquito Culex pipiens using organophosphate insecticides (OP) has selected for OP-resistance alleles on a world-wide scale. As reviewed here, studies at the levels of gene and population allow identification of the main forces driving this process of adaptation. Three loci are involved in OP-resistance in C. pipiens. For two of these, adaptive mutations were foun...
Background: Affecting more than 400 million people worldwide, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) enzyme deficiency is the most common enzymopathy in the world. In Northern provinces of Iran high rates of incidence of the disease have been reported (8.7% to16.4% of the whole population) and most of these patients carry one of the three common G6PD gene mutations: Mediterranean, C...
Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is a hereditary autoinflammatory disease with autosomal recessive inheritance pattern often seen around the Mediterranean Sea. It is characterized by recurrent episodes of fever and polyserositis and rash. Recently, MEFV gene analysis determines the definitive diagnosis of FMF. In this study, we analyzed 12 MEFV gene mutations in more than 200 FMF patients, pr...
OBJECTIVES Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), an inherited autosomal recessive disorder, is frequently present among individuals of Mediterranean origin. Differences in the clinical manifestations of FMF between different ethnic groups have been documented. The aim of the present study was to determine the most common characteristics of FMF and the relationship between clinical findings and th...
Background MEditerranean FeVer (MEFV) gene encodes for the pyrin protein and a mutated pyrin is associated with a prolonged or augmented inflammation. Hence, various diseases were reported to be associated with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) or carriers of MEFV mutations. However, systematic evaluation of all associated diseases in children with FMF has not been done previously. Aim The a...
Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a common inflammatory rheumatic disease. Mediterranean fever (MEFV) gene, which has already been identified as being responsible for familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), is also a suspicious gene for AS because of the clinical association of these two diseases. The aim of this study was to explore the frequency and clinical significance of MEFV gene mutations (M694...
A young woman patient had early and extensive familial Mediterranean fever (FMF)-related amyloidosis and pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE). She had the novel G1042S mutation in the ATP-binding cassette subfamily C member 6 (ABCC6) gene, responsible for PXE, and the mutation M694I in MEFV, the FMF gene. Both mutations were homozygous, in agreement with consanguinity in the parents. ABCC6 deficiency...
BACKGROUND Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is one of the most frequent genetic diseases encountered in the Mediterranean region. We aimed to investigate the correlation between genetic mutations and the clinical findings in 562 patients with FMF. METHODS In this retrospective cross-sectional study conducted with patients' files between 2006, and 2013, reverse hybridization assay for MEFV g...
BACKGROUND Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal-recessive inherited inflammatory disease caused by mutations in the MEFV gene that encodes pyrin/marenostrin. It is characterized by recurrent short episodes of fever, abdominal pain and serositis affecting mainly Mediterranean and Middle Eastern populations. We determined the frequency of the compound heterozygous mutations which ha...
