The role of laquinimod in modulation of the immune response in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis: Lessons from gene expression signatures.

abstract：:We investigated the effects of interferon beta-1a (IFN beta-1a) on specific response towards two immunodominant MBP peptides and on global production of IgG. We evaluated 54 sera from multiple sclerosis (MS) patients at baseline and 1 year after treatment. We did not observe any modification of immune response to the ...
