21 Key Messages Autoinflammatory Diseases Autoinflammatory syndromes may be genetically-linked diseases (hereditary periodic fever syndromes) many of which exhibit enhanced NALP3/inflammasome activity) This is also true for crystal-induced arthritis (gout) Autoinflammatory syndromes are mostly IL-1 driven and can successfully be treated with anti-il-1 strategies (i.e. IL-1 receptor antagonist, IL-1β monoclonal antibody)
