Abstract:
:The majority of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) experience gradual progression of disability, either as secondary progressive MS (SPMS) or primary progressive MS (PPMS). A subgroup with relapsing-remitting MS shows a benign course with little or no disease progression and minimal disability decades after the first manifestations, so called benign MS (BMS). In our search to identify factors that are associated with progression of MS, we investigated serum levels of uric acid and dehydroepiandrostenedione sulphate (DHEAS), and apolipoprotein (apo)E genotype in 28 patients with BMS, 33 with SPMS, 21 with PPMS, and 29 healthy individuals. We found no significant changes in uric acid levels and apoE genotype between the four groups. Mean DHEAS levels were lower in MS patients compared with healthy controls (P = 0.049), but there were no significant differences between the clinical subgroups of MS. In patients with SPMS and PPMS there was no correlation between progression rate and serum levels of either uric acid or DHEAS. Our results suggest that serum levels of uric acid and DHEAS, and apoE genotype do not differ between patients with a benign and progressive course of MS.
