Abstract
Using spectral flow cytometry, we analyzed circulating lymphocyte subsets in treatment-naive individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS) and other central nervous system autoimmune diseases (CNS AIDs). Elevated B-cell and CD4+ T-cell frequencies were a disease-specific feature of MS, while reduced T-bet+ and CXCR3+ B-cell levels were associated with progressive disease.
期刊介绍:
The European Journal of Immunology (EJI) is an official journal of EFIS. Established in 1971, EJI continues to serve the needs of the global immunology community covering basic, translational and clinical research, ranging from adaptive and innate immunity through to vaccines and immunotherapy, cancer, autoimmunity, allergy and more. Mechanistic insights and thought-provoking immunological findings are of interest, as are studies using the latest omics technologies. We offer fast track review for competitive situations, including recently scooped papers, format free submission, transparent and fair peer review and more as detailed in our policies.
