association of new putative epitopes of myelin proteolipid protein (58-74) with pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis
multiple sclerosis (ms) is an autoimmune disease in which auto-reactive t cells react with self-antigens expressed in the central nervous system (cns). the main cause of ms is unknown. nonetheless, the most probable theory is based on molecular mimicry, which suggests that some infections can activate t cells against brain auto-antigens like myelin proteolipid protein (plp) and initiate the dis...
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...
متن کاملSerum and Saliva Myelin Basic Protein as Multiple Sclerosis Biomarker
Objective: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is presented with motor and sensory function loss. It is caused by demyelination and following axonal lesion. As myelin basic protein (MBP) is one of the key elements of the myelin cover, we examined the level of MBP in serum, stimulated, and unstimulated saliva as a suitable biomarker for detecting MS. Methods: A case-control study was performed in 29 health...
متن کاملIncreased immunoreactivity to two overlapping peptides of myelin proteolipid protein in multiple sclerosis.
We tested the proliferative responses of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 61 patients with multiple sclerosis, 56 healthy control subjects and 52 patients with other neurological diseases to seven synthetic peptides of myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) and 19 synthetic peptides of myelin basic protein (MBP). Increased proliferative responses to two overlapping PLP peptides, PLP184-199 and...
متن کاملEffect of gender on T-cell proliferative responses to myelin proteolipid protein antigens in patients with multiple sclerosis and controls.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system. Gender influences both susceptibility to MS, with the disease being more common in women, and the clinical course of disease, with an increased proportion of males developing the primary progressive form of the disease. The basis for these differences may include genetic and immunological factors, a...
