Активизированный сывороточный альбом с интерлейкин-33 подавляет экспериментальный аутоиммунный энцефаломиэлит.

Interleukin-33 (IL-33) — иммунорегулирующий цитокин, который умеренно подавляет экспериментальный аутоиммунный энцефаломиелит (EAE) — мюриновая модель множественного склероза (MS). Однако плохое фармакокинетическое состояние и токсичность препятствуют его клиническому переводу. Чтобы преодолеть эти ограничения, мы создадим Activity-attenuated IL-33 рекомбинантным синтезом до сыворотки альбома (SA). SA-IL-33 демонстрирует снижение токсичности и длительное пребывание в вторичных лимфоидных органах (SLOs), на участках Т-клетки, начиненных автоиммунитетом, по сравнению с диким типом (WT) IL-33. Пр

Interleukin-33 (IL-33) is an immunoregulatory cytokine that moderately suppresses experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a murine model of multiple sclerosis (MS). However, poor pharmacokinetics and toxicity hinder its clinical translation. To address these limitations, we develop an activity-attenuated IL-33 by recombinant fusion to serum albumin …

Sp3 улучшила экспериментальный аутоиммунный энцефаломиэлит, спровоцировав Socs3 в клетках Th17.

ВВЕДЕНИЕ: Хотя считается, что хронические подстрекательские и дегенеративные заболевания центральной нервной системы поддерживаются аутоиммунными клетками ТТ17, основополагающие механизмы остаются в основном неисследованными. Недавние исследования и наши исследования показали, что Sp3 был заблокирован в нескольких склерозах (MS) и экспериментальном аутоиммунном энцефаломиелите (EAE). Вместе с тем остается неясным, почему в нем ничего не говорится и как он регулирует дифференциацию клеток TH17 в MS. ЦЕЛИ: Данное исследование было направлено на изучение воздействия Сп3 на ТХ17 в клетках EAE и ле

BACKGROUND: The role of senescence in disease contexts is complex, however there is considerable evidence that depletion of senescent cells … ld. RESULTS: A single-cell analysis of brain tissue from mice subjected to experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a mouse model of CNS inflammation that models aspects of multiple sclerosis (MS), identified microglia with a strong transcriptional signature of senescence including the presence of BCL2-family gene transcripts. Microglia expressing Bcl2l1 h …

The Gut Microbiome in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME)/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS).

Myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) is a neglected, debilitating multi-systemic disease without diagnostic marker or therapy. Despite evidence for neurological, immunological, infectious, muscular and endocrine pathophysiological abnormalities, the etiology and a clear pathophysiology remains unclear. The gut microbiome gained much attention in the last decade with manifold implications in health and disease. Here we review the current state of knowledge on the interplay between ME/CFS and the microbiome, to identify potential diagnostic or interventional approache…

Muscle sodium content in patients with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

BACKGROUND: Muscle fatigue and pain are key symptoms of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS). Although the pathophysiology is not yet fully understood, there is ample evidence for hypoperfusion which may result in electrolyte imbalance and sodium overload in muscles. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess levels of sodium content in muscles of patients with ME/CFS and to compare these to healthy controls. METHODS: Six female patients with ME/CFS and six age, BMI and sex matched controls underwent 23Na-MRI of the left lower leg using a clinical 3T MR scanner befo…

Post-COVID-19 Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis in a 17-Month-Old.

Neurologic manifestations of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in pediatric patients have been reported in the acute and postinfectious stages of coronavirus disease 2019. Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) typically presents in children after a viral illness at a mean age of 3 to 7 years. A total of 60% to 90% of literature-reported pediatric patients with ADEM have minimal to no neurologic deficits at long-term follow-up. We present a 17-month-old developmentally typical girl with parental complaints of irritability, upper extremity weakness, and…

Insights into Metabolite Diagnostic Biomarkers for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a persistent and unexplained pathological state characterized by exertional and severely debilitating fatigue, with/without infectious or neuropsychiatric symptoms, and with a minimum duration of 6 consecutive months. Its pathogenesis is not fully understood. There are no firmly established diagnostic biomarkers or treatment, due to incomplete understanding of the etiology of ME/CFS and diagnostic uncertainty. Establishing a biomarker for the objective diagnosis is urgently needed to treat a lot of patients. Recently, research on M…

Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis (ADEM): A Demyelinating Disease with Specific Morphological Features.

Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is a rare immune-mediated inflammatory and demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system. Its characteristic perivenular demyelination and inflammation aid in the differential diagnosis with other inflammatory demyelinating diseases. Here, we present a clinical case of ADEM, summarize its histological hallmarks, and discuss pitfalls concerning the most important neuropathological differential diagnoses.

Patient perceptions of infectious illnesses preceding Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

OBJECTIVES: Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) is often reported to be caused by an infectious agent. However, it is unclear whether one infectious agent might be the cause or whether there might be many different infectious agents. The objective of this study was to identify self-reported infectious illnesses associated with the onset of ME/CFS. METHODS: The present study involved data from multiple sites in several countries. 1773 individuals diagnosed with either ME, CFS or ME/CFS provided qualitative data concerning infectious triggers which were coded and classif…

Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis: An Unusual Presentation of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection.

BACKGROUND: Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is a rare inflammatory and demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system, with a distinct tendency to a perivenous localization of pathological changes. Children are the most affected population and frequently presented after exanthematous viral infections or vaccination. Due to the rarity of this disease, the annual incidence rate in the population is not precisely known. Case Presentation. Here, we present a 28-year-old male HIV-1 positive patient with an acute confusional state, a diminished alert status characterized by somnole…

Acute Demyelinating Encephalomyelitis (ADEM) in COVID-19 Infection: A Case Series.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to report three patients COVID-19 infection with severe respiratory syndrome requiring intubation, who developed acute demyelinating encephalomyelitis (ADEM). METHODS: Patient data were obtained from medical records from the North Memorial Hospital, Robbinsdale, MN, USA. RESULTS: Three patients (two men and one woman, aged 38-63) presented with fatigue, cough, and fever leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome secondary to COVID-19 infection requiring ventilatory support. Two patients were unresponsive and the third patient had severe diffuse we…

Multiphasic acute disseminated encephalomyelitis and differential with early onset multiple sclerosis.

Multiple sclerosis is considered the most frequent demyelinating disorder of the Central Nervous System (CNS) among young adults, yet is very rare before 10 years old. Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis is a monophasic, polysymptomatic disorder that involves the CNS white matter with demyelinating lesions, which usually occurs after systemic viral infections. These two demyelinating diseases can present initially as an acute focal neurological syndrome and they can be difficult to distinguish. We describe a case of a nine-year-old girl that presented initially with dysphonia, gait ataxia, ey…

Helminths products directly modulate T cells that mediate experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.

Infection with helminths can protect against the development of autoimmune diseases and this has been associated with induction of anti-inflammatory innate immune responses and Tregs. Here, we demonstrate that helminth-derived products can directly target T cells, especially IL-17-secreting γδ T cells that play a key pathogenic role in CNS autoimmune disease.

Acteoside ameliorates experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis through inhibiting peroxynitrite-mediated mitophagy activation.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease in central nervous system (CNS) with limited therapeutic drugs. In the present study, we explored the anti-inflammatory/neuroprotective properties of Acteoside (AC), an active compound from medicinal herb Radix Rehmanniae (RR), and neuroprotective effects of AC on MS pathology by using an experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model. We tested the hypothesis that AC could alleviate EAE pathogenesis through inhibiting inflammation and ONOO--mediated mitophagy activation in vivo and in vitro. The results showed that AC treatment effecti…

Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia: Definitions, Similarities, and Differences.

This commentary presents a simplified way of making the diagnosis of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) using the 1994 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention case definition. The format used can easily be modified for other case definitions. The commentary then discusses whether ME/CFS is the same or a different illness from fibromyalgia. Because overlap exists between the 2 syndromes, some investigators have posited that they are variants of the same illness. I have viewed this as an empirically testable hypothesis and have summoned considerable amounts of data th…

Metabolic abnormalities in chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis: a mini-review.

Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), commonly known as myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), is a debilitating disease of unknown etiology. CFS/ME is a heterogeneous disease associated with a myriad of symptoms but with severe, prolonged fatigue as the core symptom associated with the disease. There are currently no known biomarkers for the disease, largely due to the lack of knowledge surrounding the eitopathogenesis of CFS/ME. Numerous studies have been conducted in an attempt to identify potential biomarkers for the disease. This mini-review offers a brief summary of current research into the identifi…

RGC-32 Promotes Th17 Cell Differentiation and Enhances Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis.

Th17 cells play a critical role in autoimmune diseases, including multiple sclerosis and its animal model, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. Response gene to complement (RGC)-32 is a cell cycle regulator and a downstream target of TGF-β that mediates its profibrotic activity. In this study, we report that RGC-32 is preferentially upregulated during Th17 cell differentiation. RGC-32-/- mice have normal Th1, Th2, and regulatory T cell differentiation but show defective Th17 differentiation in vitro. The impaired Th17 differentiation is associated with defects in IFN regulatory factor 4,…
