Abstract

A number of studies indicated that alterations of apoptosis and its regulation together with upregulated inflammatory response are involved in pathogenesis of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF). However, molecular and cellular mechanisms responsible for abnormalities in apoptosis and their relationship with autoinflammatory responses in FMF are not clear.
