Abstract:
:Reliable, and easy to measure, immunological markers able to denote disease characteristics in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients are still lacking. We applied a multivariate statistical analysis on results obtained by measuring-by real-time RT-PCR-mRNA levels of 25 immunological relevant molecules in PBMCs from 198 MS patients. The combined measurement of mRNA levels of IL-1beta, TNF-alpha, TGF-beta, CCL20 and CCR3 was able to distinguish MS patients from healthy individuals. CXCR5, CCL5, and CCR3 combined mRNA levels identify primary progressive MS patients while TNF-alpha, IL-10, CXCL10 and CCR3 differentiate relapsing MS patients. Our results indicate that multi-parametric analysis of mRNA levels of immunological relevant molecules in PBMCs may represent a successful strategy for the identification of putative peripheral markers of disease state and disease activity in MS patients.
