Disease IDSourceNameDescription
608068 OMIMPyrin-associated autoinflammatory disease (PAAND)An autosomal dominant autoinflammatory disorder characterized by childhood onset of recurrent episodes of fever, neutrophilic dermatosis, myalgia and arthralgia. The neutrophilic dermatosis comprises a spectrum of clinical manifestations, including severe acne, sterile skin abscesses, pyoderma gangrenosum, and neutrophilic small-vessel vasculitis. Pathological examination of affected skin shows a dense, predominantly neutrophilic, vascular, perivascular, and interstitial infiltrate. PAAND has incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
134610 OMIMFamilial Mediterranean fever, autosomal dominant (ADFMF)A hereditary periodic fever syndrome 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 reactive renal amyloidosis and characterized by colchicine unresponsiveness. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
249100 OMIMFamilial Mediterranean fever, autosomal recessive (ARFMF)A hereditary periodic fever syndrome characterized by recurrent episodic fever, serosal inflammation and pain in the abdomen, chest or joints. It is frequently complicated by reactive amyloidosis, which leads to renal failure and can be prophylactically treated with colchicine. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. The disease-associated mutations in the B30.2/SPRY domain perturb ULK1 recruitment and autophagic degradation of inflammasome components, including NLRP3, and hence may contribute to the inflammatory phenotype associated with ARFMF.
