چکیده

multiple sclerosis (ms) is a neurodegenerative and autoimmune disease that it’s molecular etiology and factors involving in its progression remains unknown. in this study for evaluation effect of mercuric on progression of ms we investigated the additive effect of mercuric sulfide on the brain mitochondrial dysfunction in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (eae) model of ms in c57bl/6 mice. eae model of ms induced by injecting myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (mog) to female c57bl/6 mice. neurobehavioral alterations are observed and recorded in the test animals. experimental animals are divided into four groups (n=8); control, hg2+, eae, eae with hg2+. mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation at day 28 and brain mitochondria were isolated and mitochondrial toxicity parameters including mitochondrial swelling, reactive oxygen species (ros) formation, collapse of mitochondrial membrane potential (mmp) and cytochrome c release were measured. our results showed that repeated treatment of mercury following induction of eae in mice significantly increased the neurobehavioral scores, as well as mitochondrial toxicity through ros formation, mitochondrial swelling, collapse of mmp and cytochrome c release in brain mitochondria. our findings proved that repeated exposure with mercury accelerates progression of ms through mitochondrial damage related to oxidative stress and finally apoptosis in brain mitochondria in ms.

Relationship between Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Multiple Sclerosis: A Review Study

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system that inflammation, demyelination, oligodendrocyte loss, gliosis, axonal injury and neurodegeneration are the main histopathological hallmarks of the disease. Although MS was classically thought as a demyelinating disease, but axonal injury occurs commonly in acute inflammatory lesions. In MS mi...

Mitochondrial dysfunction and neurodegeneration in multiple sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis (MS) has traditionally been considered an autoimmune inflammatory disorder leading to demyelination and clinical debilitation as evidenced by our current standard anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive treatment regimens. While these approaches do control the frequency of clinical relapses, they do not prevent the progressive functional decline that plagues many people with ...
