About this trial
Autoinflammatory diseases (AID) are caused by innate immunity dysregulation. AID pathophysiology is only partly understood, especially in the case of unclassified AID. Mast cells (MC) are innate immune cells associated with a spectrum of disease between systemic mastocytosis and mast cell activation syndrome. The implication of MC has been shown in cryopyrin associated periodic syndrome (CAPS).Our aim is to evaluate the involvement of MC in AID by assessing clinical and biological signs of MC activation and studying cutaneous and digestive biopsies.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
: presence of MCAS
presence of clinical and biological markers of MCAS
Secondary outcomes
comparison of clinical symptoms of MC activation between groups
we will compare clinical symptoms of MC activation between AID patients and other groups
MC mediators associated to AID
determine which MC mediators are elevated in AID and if they correlate with inflammation
MC infiltration in biopsies from AID patients
we will study MC infiltration in digestive, renale and cutaneous biopsies from patients with AID and compare them with biopsies from the other groups from subgroups of patients who had a biopsy performed.
basophilic polynuclear activation in AID patients
we will study basophilic polynuclear activation from blood samples of AID patients
