Are Periventricular Lesions Specific for Multiple Sclerosis?
BACKGROUND The presence of periventricular lesions (PVL) on MRI scans is part of the revised McDonald multiple sclerosis (MS) diagnostic criteria. However, PVL can be found in other neurological diseases including stroke and migraine. Migraine is highly prevalent in patients with MS. OBJECTIVE To determine if PVL are specific for patients with MS compared to stroke and migraine. METHODS We ...
متن کاملDisease-specific molecular events in cortical multiple sclerosis lesions
Cortical lesions constitute an important part of multiple sclerosis pathology. Although inflammation appears to play a role in their formation, the mechanisms leading to demyelination and neurodegeneration are poorly understood. We aimed to identify some of these mechanisms by combining gene expression studies with neuropathological analysis. In our study, we showed that the combination of infl...
متن کاملEnhanced expression of NGF receptors in multiple sclerosis lesions.
The receptor for nerve growth factor (NGF) comprises a 75-kDa (NGFRp75) and a tyrosine kinase A (TrkA) subunit. In view of conflicting opinions on the identity of glial targets of NGF in human central nervous system (CNS), we examined the cellular distribution of both NGF receptor subunits in normal CNS and in chronic multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions. For this, we compared the pattern of recogni...
متن کاملDifferential expression of glucose-metabolizing enzymes in multiple sclerosis lesions
INTRODUCTION Demyelinated axons in multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions have an increased energy demand in order to maintain conduction. However, oxidative stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction likely alters glucose metabolism and consequently impairs neuronal function in MS. Imaging and pathological studies indicate that glucose metabolism is altered in MS, although the underlying mechanisms and...
متن کاملEnhanced antioxidant enzyme expression in inflammatory multiple sclerosis lesions
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) contribute to the formation and persistence of multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions by acting on distinct pathological processes. In the initial phase of MS lesion development, locally produced ROS may induce blood-brain barrier disruption and enhance leukocyte migration and myelin phagocytosis. In advanced stages, ROS may contribute to lesion persistence by mediating o...
