Özet
Deficiency of the interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (DIRA)(OMIM 612852) is a recently described rare autoinflammatory and autosomal recessive disease, caused by loss of function mutations in interleukin-1-receptor antagonist gene (IL1RN) leading to the unopposed activation of the IL-1 pathway. The human IL1RN gene is localized to the long arm of chromosome 2 at band 2q13 (OMIM 147679). Until now, only thirteen cases resembling this have beeen reported in the world.
