No quiet surrender: molecular guardians in multiple sclerosis brain.
The brain under immunological attack does not surrender quietly. Investigation of brain lesions in multiple sclerosis (MS) reveals a coordinated molecular response involving various proteins and small molecules ranging from heat shock proteins to small lipids, neurotransmitters, and even gases, which provide protection and foster repair. Reduction of inflammation serves as a necessary prerequis...
متن کاملWhite Matter Diseases YES, Multiple Sclerosis NO, Sjogren - Larsson Syndrome: Another Differential Diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis
Sjogren-Larsson Syndrome (SLS) is an inherited autosomal recessive neurocutaneous disorder with congenital ichthyosis, spastic diplegia or quadriplegia and mental retardation. We report a case of Sjogren-Larsson Syndrome with clinical profile (mental retardation, ichthyosis, spastic diplegia) and MRI findings such as seen in multiple sclerosis (MS). So this rare syndrome can be another differen...
متن کاملSensory impairments in quiet standing in subjects with multiple sclerosis.
Balance disorders and falls are frequently observed in subjects with multiple sclerosis (MS). Along with motor impairment, sensory disorders and integration deficits of sensory inputs lead to inadequate motor responses. The assessment of these sensory disorders in an every day tasks, such as upright stance, increases our knowledge of postural control in this pathology, thus promoting more effec...
متن کاملMolecular mimicry in multiple sclerosis.
Two main etiological components are considered important in human autoimmune diseases including multiple sclerosis (MS), first the immunogenetic background and second environmental factors. Among the latter, infectious organisms are probably the most relevant, and epidemiological studies in MS firmly support that viral infections often precede disease exacerbations or the onset of MS. Infectiou...
متن کاملMolecular mimicry in multiple sclerosis.
Most experts believe that multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease in which T cells recognize and attack components of the axonal myelin sheath and other features of the central nervous system, destroying myelin and the underlying axon. Although self-reactive T cells are present in the immune system of people with multiple sclerosis, they are also found in a quiescent state in perfectly heal...
