Elevated systemic antibodies towards commensal gut microbiota in autoinflammatory condition.

<h4>Background</h4>Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autoinflammatory condition, which is characterized by acute, self-limiting episodes of fever and serositis and chronic subclinical inflammation in remission. Here we investigated the consequence of this condition on the level of...
