MalaCards: Behcet's Disease, also known as behcet's syndrome, is related to familial mediterranean fever and ankylosing spondylitis. An important gene associated with Behcet's Disease is C9orf174 (chromosome 9 open reading frame 174), and among its related pathways are Immune response Role of DAP12 receptors in NK cells and Immune response_Role of DAP12 receptors in NK cells. The drug thalidomide and the compounds ivig and nadph have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include whole blood, skin and myeloid, and related mouse phenotypes are renal/urinary system and no phenotypic analysis. Disease Ontology: An autoimmune disease of cardiovascular system that causes chronic inflammation in blood vessels throughout the body leading to ulcerations on the mouth and sometimes the genitals, notorious for causing hypopyon uveitis.6 NIH Rare Diseases: Behcet's disease is a chronic multisystem inflammatory disorder characterized by ulcers affecting the mouth and genitals, various skin lesions, and abnormalities affecting the eyes. Although it can happen at any age, symptoms generally begin when individuals are in their 20s or 30s. The disease is common in Japan, Turkey and Israel, and less common in the United States. The exact cause of Behcet's disease is unknown. Treatment is symptomatic and supportive.30 NINDS: Behcet's disease is a rare, chronic inflammatory disorder. The cause of Behcet's disease is unknown, but current research suggests that both genetic and 31 Genetics Home Reference: Behçet disease is an inflammatory condition that affects many parts of the body. The health problems associated with Behçet disease result from widespread inflammation of blood vessels (vasculitis). This inflammation most commonly affects the mouth, genitals, skin, and eyes.17 |
