Abstract
Increased chromosome breakage is observed in patients with familial mediterranean fever (FMF). Their plasma contains clastogenic material inducing chromosome damage in cells from healthy persons. It is proposed that increased oxyradical generation by activated polymorphonuclear cells in blood and serosal fluids of these patients leads to the formation of a clastogenic factor (CF), as it is observed in other chronic inflammatory diseases. Also similar to these diseases, the clastogenic effects are prevented by superoxide dismutase and partially by inhibitors of arachidonic acid metabolism.
