Tumor necrosis factor identified in multiple sclerosis brain
Frozen brain specimens from patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and other neurologic diseases were analyzed using immunocytochemical techniques for the presence of TNF. In brain lesions in MS, and subacute sclerosing panencephalitis, TNF+ cells were demonstrated. At the lesion site in MS, TNF+ staining is associated with both astrocytes and macrophages. These observations were not made in Alz...
متن کاملAnti-tumor necrosis factor alpha-associated multiple sclerosis.
A case of multiple sclerosis presenting during anti-tumor necrosis factor treatment for rheumatoid arthritis is discussed. This association has been reported in the nonradiological literature, but is an important association for radiologists to be aware of, as they may be in a position to first suggest the diagnosis.
متن کاملAssociation between Tumor Necrosis Factor- α-308 G/A Polymorphism and Multiple Sclerosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex polygenic disease in which gene-environment interactions are important. A number of studies have investigated the association between tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) -308 G/A polymorphism (substitution G→A, designated as TNF1 and TNF2) and MS susceptibility in different populations, but the results of individual studies have been inconsistent. Therefore, per...
متن کاملtumor necrosis factor-alpha polymorphism and susceptibility to multiple sclerosis in the iranian population
conclusions the current study adds evidence to the association of tnf-α gene polymorphism and ms in this southern south iranian population which is consistent with the genetic analysis of ms in europeans (games) project reports and these two alleles reported in this study may be one of the genetic risk factor for ms. furthermore, this data can be used to build the iranian gene bank for future s...
متن کاملEvaluation of Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha Polymorphism Frequencies in Endometriosis
Background The pro-inflammatory cytokine, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), is a pathogenic element for a number of disorders. Previous studies have reported that the -1031 T/C and -238 G/A polymorphisms in the promoter region of the TNF-α gene are important factors in reproductive-related disorders. One of the most common gynecological diseases of women during the reproductive years is endo...
