The concept of induction treatment followed by long-term maintenance treatment in multiple sclerosis (MS) has attracted considerable attention. The combination of mitoxantrone as the induction therapy followed by an immunomodulatory drug (e.g., interferon beta or glatiramer acetate) as the maintenance therapy is of particular interest. This approach is suitable for patients with particularly ag...
A 44-year-old woman with multiple sclerosis (MS) receiving interferon (IFN)-beta-1a treatment was admitted to a local hospital for severe icterus and liver injury. She was transferred to our university hospital because fulminant hepatitis (FH) was suspected. She was diagnosed with acute-type FH based on hepatic coma, severe liver injury and liver failure, and she received plasma exchange and co...
We show that DNA methyltransferase inhibitors (DNMTis) upregulate immune signaling in cancer through the viral defense pathway. In ovarian cancer (OC), DNMTis trigger cytosolic sensing of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) causing a type I interferon response and apoptosis. Knocking down dsRNA sensors TLR3 and MAVS reduces this response 2-fold and blocking interferon beta or its receptor abrogates it....
Alemtuzumab (formerly known as Campath-1H) has recently been approved by the European Medicines Agency for highly-active, relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS). The molecule targets the CD52 surface glycoprotein on certain T cells and B cells and is thought to exert its effect in MS through a "resetting" of the lymphocyte population. Approval was granted on the strength of two pivotal stu...
hepatitis c virus (hcv) envelope glycoprotein-2 (e2) inhibits the interferon (ifn)–induced, double –stranded rna activated protein kinase (pkr) via pkr eukaryotic initiation factor-2α phosphorylation homology domain (pephd). present study examined the genetic variability of the pephd in patients receiving interferon therapy. the pephd region from hcv genotype 1a/1b infected patients receiving i...
The progressive growth of neoplasms and the production of metastasis depend on the development of adequate vasculature, i.e., angiogenesis. The extent of angiogenesis is determined by the balance between positive- and negative-regulating molecules that are released by tumor and host cells in the microenvironment. The growth of many neoplasms is associated with the absence of the endogenous inhi...
Human beta-interferon stimulates a 4-fold increase in the concentration of diacyglycerol and a 2-fold increase in the concentration of inositol monophosphate in Daudi (human B-lymphoblastoid) cells within 30 sec of exposure of the cells to interferon. The increase in diacylglycerol and in inositol monophosphate is transient and the concentrations of these compounds decrease to basal levels with...
Although successful iron chelation with deferiprone is associated with significant complications, patient’s compliance with medication regimens is of a high priority. The present study did evaluate the complications and compliance of domestically-manufactured deferiprone combined with desferrioxamine for iron chelation therapy. A total of 32 major beta thalassemic patients with cardiomyopathy w...
CONTEXT Interferon beta is widely prescribed to treat multiple sclerosis (MS); however, its relationship with disability progression has yet to be established. OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between interferon beta exposure and disability progression in patients with relapsing-remitting MS. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENTS Retrospective cohort study based on prospectively collected d...
In contrast to the results of previous in vitro studies, experimental infection of calves with noncytopathic bovine viral diarrhea virus (ncpBVDV) was found to induce strong alpha/beta and gamma interferon responses in gnotobiotic animals. These responses were associated with depressed levels of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) in serum. The results of this study indicate that the imm...
