  • Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS) -NLRP3 inflammasome:
    • Familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome (FCAS1)
    • Muckle-Wells syndrome
    • Neonatal onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID, also known as CINCA)
  • Deficiency of the interleukin-1-receptor antagonist (DIRA)
