Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) and Pyrin-Associated Autoinflammation with Neutrophilic Dermatosis (PAAND) are clinically distinct autoinflammatory disorders caused by mutations in the pyrin-encoding gene MEFV. We investigated the transcriptional, phenotypical, and functional characteristics of patient neutrophils to explore their potential role in FMF and PAAND pathophysiology.
