In addition, an activating mutation (A352V) in NLRP3 leading to Muckle Wells syndrome is associated with excessive neutrophil granule exocytosis (23) and a gain-of-function mutation in NLRP3, which results in Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is subsequently linked to augmented NETosis (24, 25). The gene discussed is NLRP3; the disease is Muckle-Wells syndrome.
