Abstract excerpt

Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is a recessive disorder characterized by attacks of fever and inflammation. A sustained inflammatory reaction is observed in the disease course, and cytokine levels such as interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alfa) are shown to increase during and between the attacks. In this study, we investigated the role of the functionally important IL-6 -174 G/C...
