Lipid rafts and their possible involvements in neuroimmunological disorders.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica (NMO) are presumed to be an autoimmune disease in the central nervous system (CNS). Although lipids are most abundant components in the nervous system, it has been believed that cellular and/or humoral immunity to various myelin proteins causes these neuroinflammatory diseases. Recent research advances enable us to study lipids in the membranes a...
متن کاملPotential neuroimmunological targets in the treatment of anxiety disorders.
In the translation of psychoneuroimmunology research into clinical practice, one critical step is to identify biomarkers for improved diagnosis and targeting of interventions. Inflammatory markers deserve special attention due to their crucial role linking various health conditions and disorders. In this chapter, we discuss the pivotal roles of cytokines in signalling to the brain and leading t...
متن کامل[Antibody-related neuroimmunological disorders: update on the diagnosis and treatment].
Varieties of autoantibodies are known to relate to autoimmune neurological disorders as the diagnostic and therapeutic markers. Some of them affected directly to the pathomechanisms of neurological diseases. Recently several autoantibodies with such roles have been reported showing the common characters as recognizing cell surface antigens. Among them, anti-aquaporin 4 antibody (AQP4-Ab) in neu...
متن کاملThe application of glycosphingolipid arrays to autoantibody detection in neuroimmunological disorders.
Humans with autoimmune peripheral neuropathies frequently harbour serum antibodies to single glycosphingolipids, especially gangliosides. Recently it has been appreciated that glycolipid and lipid complexes, formed from two or more individual species, can interact to create molecular shapes capable of being recognised by these autoantibodies whilst not binding to the single individuals. As a re...
متن کاملMathematical Modelling of Neuroimmunological Interactions
In general, the healthy state of the immune system is determined by the balance between two different cell types: Th1 (type one of helper CD4+ T cells) and Th2 (type two of helper CD4+ T cells). If the dominant cell and the related molecules turn into to the Th1-type, then the organism goes into the diseased state. The aim of this study is to analyze and mathematically model the neuroimmunologi...
