Serum and Cerebrospinal Fluid Cytokine Biomarkers for Diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis

Abstract: Background. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic debilitating disorder characterized by persisting damage to the brain caused by autoreactive leukocytes. Leukocyte activation is regulated by cytokines, which are readily detected in MS serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Objective. Serum and CSF levels of forty-five cytokines were analyzed to identify MS diagnostic markers. Methods. Cytokines were analyzed using multiplex immunoassay. ANOVA-based feature and Pearson correlation coefficient scores were calculat… Show more

“…The cytokine quantification in culture supernatants of PBMC of patients and controls stimulated with VZV confirm the results obtained from proliferation assays. A Th1 cytokine profile was predominant in cell cultures of REM-MS patients stimulated with VZV, in agreement with studies of systemic memory T-cells expressing IFN-γ, TNF and IL-2 in latent VZV infected individuals [ 34 ] and coinciding with reports that MS should be considered a Th1/Th17 driven disease [ 35 , 36 ]. Hence, VZV could be driving or enhancing Th1 inflammation, possibly aided by cytokines secreted by B cells or macrophages, since our cultures contained not only T lymphocytes, but all PBMC.…”

“…People with progressive MS have increased CSF and serum concentrations of IL-1β compared to both RRMS and healthy controls [110,237]. Similar to TNF-α, addition of IL-1β in culture caused oligodendrocyte cell death [231,232] and IL-1β is enriched in microglia, macrophages, and neutrophils during EAE [90,202,238].…”
