High prevalence of autoantibodies against monomeric C reactive protein (CRP) in children with PFAPA syndrome

PFAPA (periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis, cervical adenitis) syndrome is an autoinflammatory disorder of unknown etiology. The aim of our study was to evaluate whether the presence of anti-mCRP autoantibodies (anti-mCRP) might possibly contribute to systemic inflammation during PFAPA...

We carried out anti-mCRP testing (in-house ELISA) in a single-center, prospective cohort of 30 PFAPA patients (12 girls).
