Abstract:
INTRODUCTION:Embryo-derived PIF modulates systemic maternal immunity without suppression. Synthetic analog (sPIF) prevents juvenile diabetes, preserves islet function, reducing oxidative stress/protein misfolding. We investigate sPIF effectiveness in controlling neuroinflammation/MS. METHODS:Examine sPIF-induced protection against harsh, clinical-relevant murine EAE-PLP acute and chronic models. Evaluate clinical indices: circulating cytokines, spinal cord histology, genome, canonical global proteome, cultured PLP-activated splenocytes cytokines, and immunophenotype. RESULTS:Short-term, low-dose sPIF prevented paralysis development and lowered mortality (P<0.05). Episodic sPIF reversed chronic paralysis (P<0.0001) completely in >50%, by day 82. Prevention model: 12days post-therapy, sPIF reduced circulating IL12 ten-fold and inflammatory cells access to spinal cord. Regression model: sPIF blocked PLP-induced IL17 and IL6 secretions. Long-term chronic model: sPIF reduced spinal cord pro-inflammatory cytokines/chemokines, (ALCAM, CF1, CCL8), apoptosis-promoters, inflammatory cells access (JAM3, OPA1), solute channels (ATPases), aberrant coagulation factors (Serpins), and pro-antigenic MOG. Canonical proteomic analysis demonstrated reduced oxidative phosphorylation, vesicle traffic, cytoskeleton remodeling involved in neuro-cytoskeleton breakdown (tubulins), associated with axon re-assembly by (MTAPs)/improved synaptic transmission. CONCLUSION:sPIF--through coordinated central and systemic multi-targeted action--reverses neuroinflammation/MS and imparts significant neuroprotective effects up to total paralysis resolution. Clinical testing is warranted and planned.

杂志文章abstract:INTRODUCTION:Nerve conduction is often regarded as more sensitive than ultrasonography (US) for diagnosing carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). The diagnostic value of US derives from median nerve enlargement occurring at both ends of the carpal tunnel resulting in a dumbbell-like swelling from carpal tunnel pressure. An impo...
