    Induction: In monocytes, by treatment with colchicine and IFN-alpha, and by the proinflammatory cytokines
    IFNG/IFN-gamma, TNF and bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS). Repressed in monocytes by the antiinflammatory cytokines
    IL10/interleukin-10, TGFB1 and IL4/interleukin-4. In neutrophils, colchicine, TNF, bacterial lipopolysaccharides
    (LPS), IL10/interleukin-10, INF-alpha and IL4/interleukin-4 have no effect on expression. IFNG/IFN-gamma increases

  • Defects in MEFV are the cause of familial Mediterranean fever autosomal recessive (ARFMF) [MIM:249100]. ARFMF
  • is an inherited disorder characterized by recurrent episodic fever, serosal inflammation and pain in the abdomen,
    chest or joints. ARFMF is frequently complicated by amyloidosis, which leads to renal failure and can be
    prophylactically treated with colchicine. ARFMF primarily affects ancestral ethnic groups living around the
    Mediterranean basin: North African Jews, Armenians, Arabs and Turks. The disease is also distributed in other
    populations including Greeks, Cypriots, Italians and Spanish, although at a lower prevalence
  • Defects in MEFV are the cause of familial Mediterranean fever autosomal dominant (ADFMF) [MIM:134610]. ADFMF
  • is characterized by periodic fever, serosal inflammation and pain in the abdomen, chest or joints as seen also in the
    autosomal recessive form of the disease. It is associated with renal amyloidosis and characterized by colchicine
    unresponsiveness
