Abstract：
:Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex chronic immune disease in the central nervous system, causing neurological disability among young and middle-aged adults. Impaired cognition is now emerging as a major clinical symptom being present in more than 50% of MS patients. Recent data support that neuroinflammation mediated by glial cells plays a key part in MS course and, particularly, microglia is responsible for the pruning of synapses possibly impacting on vital neural networks maintenance. However, the knowledge of microglia-mediated mechanisms underlying cognitive impairment in MS is poor and unfortunately, there are no medicines to overcome this "invisible" symptom. Interestingly, the use of powerful diagnostic imaging tools as structural and functional MRI as well as PET brought new insights into some biological mechanisms, but no link between the possibility to use early visible alterations to predict cognitive deficits was clarified yet. In this review, we focus on the interplay between MS-related cognitive structures and neuroinflammation, specifically the presence of microglia and their reactivity. Moreover, we also discuss new imaging tools to assess cognitive impairment and to track microglia activation. Understanding the role of microglia in cognitive impairment and how it can be prevented may be a promising contribution to innovative therapeutic strategies that culminate in the improvement of MS patients' life quality.
