BACKGROUND Nitric oxide (NO) may play a role in tissue destruction and axonal degeneration in multiple sclerosis (MS). OBJECTIVE To investigate NO production by peripheral blood leukocytes (PBL) in patients with a benign and progressive course of MS. METHODS PBL were isolated from 25 patients with a benign course of MS (BMS), 33 with secondary progressive MS (SPMS), 21 with primary progress...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, autoimmune disease affecting the central nervous system. The disease targets the myelin sheaths around nerves, leading to inflammation, myelin loss, and axonal destruction. MS is the most common cause of neurologic disability in people between the ages of 20 and 40. There are approximately 400,000 cases of MS in North America and approximately 2.5 million w...

BACKGROUND Both multiple sclerosis (MS) susceptibility and MS clinical phenotype are in part genetically determined. [Alpha]B-crystallin is a candidate autoantigen in MS, and there are three polymorphisms in the promoter region of the encoding gene (CRYAB): at positions -C249G, -C650G, and -A652G. METHODS These polymorphisms were studied in sporadic cases of MS, assessing disease susceptibili...
