Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: NLRP3-associated autoinflammatory diseases (NLRP3-AIDs) include conditions of various severities, due to germline or somatic mosaic NLRP3 mutations. OBJECTIVE: To identify mosaic- versus germline-specific NLRP3 mutations' characteristics, we reinterpreted all the mutations reported in NLRP3-AIDs and performed an in-depth study of 3 novel patients. METHODS: The pathogenicity of all reported...
