Correlation between Acoustic Parameters and Disease Severity and Duration in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis
Background: Since in multiple sclerosis (MS), changes in speech and voice quality often precede other signs and symptoms; early diagnosis of these changes is necessary. In this study, an acoustic examination of phonation subsystem was performed. Due to the progressive nature of multiple sclerosis, the aim of this study was to examine the correlation between acoustic parameters ...
متن کاملInduction of the myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) gene in C6 glioblastoma cells: functional analysis of the PLP promotor.
The terminal differentiation of postmitotic oligodendrocytes is marked by the induction of myelin-specific genes. In this report, we demonstrate that culture conditions that induce oligodendrocyte differentiation of glial progenitor cells also induce differentiation of C6 glioblastoma cells, as monitored by activated transcription of the gene encoding proteolipid protein (PLP), the major myelin...
متن کاملMutation of the proteolipid protein gene PLP in a human X chromosome-linked myelin disorder.
Myelin is a highly specialized membrane unique to the nervous system that ensheaths axons to permit the rapid saltatory conduction of impulses. The elaboration of a compact myelin sheath is disrupted in a diverse spectrum of human disorders, many of which are of unknown etiology. The X chromosome-linked human disorder Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease is a clinically and pathologically heterogeneous...
متن کاملCombination of Myelin Basic Protein Gene Polymorphisms with HLA-DRB1*1501 in Iranian Patients with Multiple Sclerosis
Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS), as a multifactorial autoimmune disease with complex genetic basis, causes demyelination in the central nervous system via cytokine responses to myelin antigens. Myelin basic protein (MBP) is the main protein component of the myelin sheath. HLA-DRB (human leukocyte antigen-DR beta) alleles, particularly HLA-DRB1*1501, may be of significance in the pathogenesi...
متن کاملHeat shock protein 70 associations with myelin basic protein and proteolipid protein in multiple sclerosis brains.
Heat shock proteins (hsp) are known to facilitate the generation of specific immune responses by chaperoning proteins and peptides involved in T cell activation. Hsp have been shown to be strikingly elevated in multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions. The unique chaperonin properties of hsp70 have allowed identification of immunogenic proteins bound to it by the ex vivo demonstration of hsp association...
