Abstract excerpt
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autoinflammatory disease caused by variations in the MEFV gene, which encodes the pyrin protein, a member of the inflammasomes. Despite the complex pathogenesis of FMF, epigenetic changes also play roles in the disease progression. In our previous study, we observed a relationship between NLRP13, which is one of the members of the inflammasome complex and has a pyrin...
