| الوصف: | Familial mediterranean fever (FMF) is characterized by inflammatory attacks due to overactivation of pyrin inflammasome. This study aimed to investigate the reliability of S100A8/A9, neopterin, and matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP3) at monitoring subclinical inflammation and disease activity, and at differentiating FMF attacks from appendicitis, the most common misdiagnosis among FMF patients. Blood samples (n=75), comprising from FMF patients during an attack (n=20), the same FMF patients during the attack-free period (n=14), patients with appendicitis (n=24), and healthy volunteers (n=17) were obtained. Duplicate determinations of S100A8/A9, neopterin, and MMP-3 levels were conducted using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). FMF patients with and without attack and patients with appendicitis had significantly elevated S100A8/A9 levels compared to healthy volunteers (p-values: <0.001, 0.036, 0.002, respectively). Patients with appendicitis and FMF patients with and without attack had significantly increased serum neopterin levels compared to healthy volunteers (p-value: <0.001). MMP3 levels were significantly higher among patients with appendicitis and FMF patients during attack compared to healthy controls (p-values: <0.001, 0.001). Serum levels of S100A8/A9, neopterin, and MMP3 were increased significantly during attacks compared to attack-free periods among FMF patients (p-values: 0.03, 0.047, 0.007). S100A8/A9 emerges as a valuable marker for monitoring disease activity. Neopterin and S100A8/A9 might help physicians to monitor subclinical inflammation during the attack-free periods of FMF patients. MMP3 might aid in diagnosing FMF attacks when distinguishing between attack and attack-free periods is challenging. |
