Abstract
Monocytes derived from the peripheral blood of patients with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) demonstrated a consistently lower phagocytic capacity (38-44%) for 125I-labelled Shigella flexneri when compared to monocytes from healthy subjects. Phagocytosis of both viable and killed Staphylococcus albus was similar in patients and controls. However, FMF monocytes had a two- to eight-fold depressed bactericidal capacity against S. albus in comparison to normal monocytes. Acid phosphatase and β-glucuronidase monocyte activities were similar in patients and controls. It is suggested that the defects in monocyte function may be of importance in the pathogenesis of FMF. Colchicine had no effect on any of the indices studied.
