Project description:In this project we focused on white matter injury in relapsing remitting MS. We concentrated on material obtained from patients who suffered from fulminant active MS to identify possible sources for ROS production in relation to demyelination and neurodegeneration. To identify possible sources for ROS production in relation to demyelination and neurodegeneration in MS, we used genome wide microarray analysis of gene expression in carefully dissected lesion areas of patients with fulminant acute MS. Preceding the gene expression profiling all cases were characterized histologically and areas of interest were identified. We included 4 control cases, 2 active MS cases were we separated 3 distinct lesions areas (NAWM, initial lesion and early demyelinated lesion) and 1 active MS case were we separated 2 distinct lesion areas (NAWM and early demyelinated lesion). The RNA was isolated from those areas, amplified and hybridized to Agilent G4112A whole genome microarrays.

Project description:Lipids comprise 70% of the myelin sheath, and autoantibodies against lipids may contribute to the demyelination that characterizes multiple sclerosis (MS). We used lipid antigen microarrays and lipid mass spectrometry to identify bona fide lipid targets of the autoimmune response in MS brain and an animal model of MS to explore the role of the identified lipids in autoimmune demyelination. We found that autoantibodies in MS target a phosphate group in phosphatidylserine and oxidized phosphatidylcholine derivatives. Administration of these lipids ameliorated experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis by suppressing activation and inducing apoptosis of autoreactive T cells, effects mediated by the lipids' saturated fatty-acid side chains. Thus, phospholipids represent a natural anti-inflammatory class of compounds that have potential as novel therapeutics for MS. Fig. 1A. Lipid-array profiling of IgG+IgM antibody reactivity in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from MS patients (relapsing remitting MS; secondary progressive MS; primary progressive MS), healthy controls, and other neurological disease controls. Lipid hits with the lowest FDR (q=0.048) were clustered according to their reactivity profiles. 48 different lipids were custom-spotted in duplicate using the CAMAG Automatic TLC Sampler (ATS4) robot to spray 200 nl of 10 to 100 pmol of lipids onto PVDF membranes affixed to the surface of microscope slides. The slides were probed with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from 59 human patient samples. 60 slides total: 18 relapsing-remitting MS, 14 secondary-progressive MS, 1 primary-progressive MS, 21 other neurological disease, 5 healthy control, 1 secondary Ab alone (not included in this submission). CSF diluted 1/10. HRP-conjugated secondary Ab (goat anti-human IgM/IgG) diluted 1/8000. ECL for 3 minutes.

Project description:Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic and progressive neurological disease. MS is characterized by early-stage neuroinflammation, neurodegeneration, and demyelination, with a spectrum of heterogeneous clinical manifestations in terms of disease course and response to therapy. The currently unsatisfied availability of diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers concerning disease progression and treatment response represents an important requirement for therapy individualization and drug efficacy. Specific Disease Therapies (DMTs) are available to prevent MS-related brain damage; however, the specific drug choice is still under debate and needs further characterization. Since differentially expressed miRNAs have been proposed as diagnostic tools in neurodegenerative/neuro-inflammatory diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and Alzheimer's disease, we characterized the miRNA expression profiling in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of subjects with relapsing-remitting MS treated with high efficacy DMTs: Cladribine (CLA, n=11 patients) or Ocrelizumab (OCRE, n=14 patients). The treated patients were compared to control (CTR) untreated subjects (n=15). Blood samples were collected from patients before treatment (time t0) and 6 months post-treatment (time t1), but just once from control subjects. CLA drug tablets were administered to the selected relapsing-remitting MS patients with a dosage of 1.75 mg/kg given for 5 days. OCRE drug was administered to the other relapsing-remitting MS patients by infusion with a dosage of 300 mg, twice in two weeks.

Project description:People living with multiple sclerosis (MS) experience episodic central nervous system (CNS) white matter lesions instigated by autoreactive T cells. With age, MS patients show evidence of grey matter demyelination and experience devastating non-remitting symptomology. What drives progression is unclear and has been hampered by the lack of suitable animal models. Here we show that passive experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) induced by an adoptive transfer of young Th17 cells induces a non-remitting clinical phenotype that is associated with persistent leptomeningeal inflammation and cortical pathology in old, but not young SJL/J mice. While the quantity and quality of T cells did not differ in the brains of old vs young EAE mice, an increase in neutrophils and a decrease in B cells was observed in the brains of old mice. Neutrophils were also found in the leptomeninges of a subset of progressive MS patient brains that showed evidence of leptomeningeal inflammation and subpial cortical demyelination. Taken together, our data show that while Th17 cells initiate CNS inflammation, subsequent clinical symptoms and grey matter pathology are dictated by age and associated with other immune cells such as neutrophils.

Project description:The transcriptome of normal-appearing white matter for relapse-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS), primary progressive MS and secondary progressive MS was determined using total RNA-sequencing. We then performed a differential gene analysis comparing the normal-appearing white matter for each clinical subtype of MS with non-MS control tissue

Project description:Most biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) are not yet clinically available due to low reproducibility. Here, we show that times of day affect gene expression profiles in MS patients. Thus sample collection has to be standardized based on the time-points biomarkers are expressed to increase reproducibility. In this study, we examined transcriptome profiles in whole blood of MS patients collected at two different time-points of the day, around 2 pm as the daytime and 9 pm as the nighttime. We observed the significantly changed gene expression profiles in the relapsing patients at nighttime compared to their daytime samples and the remitting patients at nighttime. Among all DEGs, we focused on differentially expressed genes (DEGs) related to immune responses because of association with clinical outcomes of MS. 68 immune responses-associated DEGs significantly changed their expression in the relapsing patients at nighttime but not in their daytime samples and remitting patients at nighttime. Therefore, this study shows that: 1) gene expresion patterns in relapsing patients are changed compared to remitting patients; 2) altered gene expression patterns in relpasing patients are detected at nighttim; 3) times of day to collect samples from MS patients should be standardized based on the gene expression patterns across a day.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to characterize the transcriptional effects induced by subcutaneous IFN-beta-1b treatment (Betaferon, 250 µg every other day) in patients with relapsing-remitting form of multiple sclerosis (MS). By using Affymetrix DNA microarrays, we obtained genome-wide expression profiles of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 25 MS patients within the first two years of IFN-beta administration.
