OBJECTIVES To analyse the most common MEFV (Mediterranean fever gene) mutations and polymorphisms in an elderly population free of chronic inflammatory disease (n=164), and explore possible associations between hsCRP (high sensitive C-reactive protein) and RF (rheumatoid factor) levels with MEFV mutations and polymorphisms. METHODS An elderly group free of chronic inflammatory disease was cho...

Results MEFV analysis was available for 44/69 patients, 7/8 with systemic onset(So) JIA and 37/61 with other types of JIA. MEFV mutations were found in 27/44 patients tested (61%). 3/7 patients (43%) with SoJIA had MEFV mutations, all heterozygous. Of the 24/37 patients (65%) with other forms of JIA had confirmed MEFV mutations and 12/24 had typical episodes of FMF. With colchicine in addition ...

BACKGROUND Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disease characterised by recurrent attacks of fever and serositis. Amyloidosis is the most significant complication of FMF, leading to end stage renal disease (ESRD). Recently the gene (MEFV) causing this disease was cloned and more than 18 mutations have been identified. The hypothesis that the development of amyloidosis i...

BACKGROUND Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by recurrent attacks of fever with serosal inflammation. FMF gene (MEFV) mutations have been identified primarily in patients from Mediterranean populations. Although several clinical cases have been reported in Japan, there have been few reports to date on mutation analysis. We studied FMF patients an...

Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is an autoinflammatory periodic disorder. We aim to identify the distribution and the frequency of the Mediterranean Fever (MEFV) gene mutations in the east of Anatolia in Turkey and perform a genotype/phenotype correlation in the patients' cohort. The study was carried out on 415 clinically diagnosed Turkish FMF patients and 103 healthy controls. The tested i...

Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autoinflammatory disorder with autosomal recessive inheritance, characterized by recurrent fever and episodes of serositis. The condition is known to be caused by mutations in the MEFV (Mediterranean FeVer) gene, located in the short arm of chromosome 16. While more than 310 sequence variants in the MEFV gene have been described to date, the diagnosis is...

Introduction Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is caused by mutations in the MEFV (Mediterranean FeVer) gene, which encodes pyrin. Phenotypic heterogeneity is very common in FMF patients and may partly rely on genetic heterogeneity. However, many cases having weak phenotypic-genotypic correlation, different clinical findings and therapeutic approaches with the same genotype show that FMF is no...

The purpose of this study was to determine the spectrum of the most common mutations in the familial Mediterranean fever gene (MEFV) in Turkish patients from the Central Anatolia region, by using two different methods for detecting FMF-associated mutations with different screening panels, and compare our results with other diagnostic molecular genetics centers. A total of 1579 patients were ana...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical manifestations and prevalence of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) in Japanese patients with unexplained fever and rheumatic manifestations. METHODS We enrolled 601 patients with unexplained fever or suspected FMF throughout Japan between 2009 and 2015. Patients were divided into three groups according to Tel Hashomer criteria: su...
