چکیده

We established an improved method for the generation of mouse monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to gangliosides by immunizing mice with purified gangliosides. Using this method, we generated and characterized a large number of the MAbs specific for gangliosides. These MAbs enabled us to examine the distribution of ganglioside in the brain. Immunohistoand immunocyto-chemical studies suggested that there is a cell type-specific expression of gangliosides in the central nervous system.

P77: NADPH Oxidase Type 4 Inhibits Immune Cell Trafficking into The Central Nervous System During Neuroinflammation

Transendothelial trafficking of immune cells into the central nervous system (CNS) and disruption of the blood brain barrier (BBB) are pathophysiological hallmarks of neuroinflammatory disorders like multiple sclerosis (MS). Accumulating evidence suggest that oxidative stress plays a major role in the pathogenesis of MS, whereas a specific influence of oxidative stress on BBB dysfunction in MS ...

P159: New Findings in The Diagnosis of Autoimmune Diseases of the Nervous System

The antibody of the nervous system is called antibodies that the body makes to the nervous system cells. These antibodies are also very diverse based on the complexity and diversity of the nervous system, and therefore their detection is also associated with particular challenges. Generally, autoimmune diseases are on the rise. The diagnostic techniques for autoimmune diseases are also in progr...

The Relationship between Glutamate and Multiple Sclerosis

Glutamate is the most important excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system which is involved in synaptic transmission, brain development, synaptic plasticity, learning, and memory. Normally, the enzymatic destruction of glutamate does not occur in the synaptic and extracellular space, but glutamate is removed through specific transporter proteins, leading to stabilization of glut...
