Damage of the spinal cord results in para- or tetraplegia and is associated with neuropathic pain, spasticity, respiratory, and autonomic dysfunction (i.e., control of bladder-bowel function). While the acute surgical treatment aims at stabilizing the spine and decompressing the damaged spinal cord, SCI patients require neurorehabilitation to restore neural function and to compensate for any impairments including motor disability, pain treatment, and bladder/bowel management. However, the spinal cord has a limited capacity to regenerate and much of the disability may persist, depending on the initial lesion severity and level of injury. For this reason, and the lack of effective drug treatments, there is an emerging interest and urgent need in promoting axonal regeneration and remyelination after SCI through cell- and stem-cell based therapies. This review briefly summarizes the state-of the art management of acute SCI and its neurorehabilitation to critically appraise phase I/II trials from the last two decades that have investigated cell-based therapies (i.e., Schwann cells, macrophages, and olfactory ensheathing cells) and stem cell-based therapies (i.e., neural stem cells, mesenchymal, and hematopoietic stem cells). Recently, two large multicenter trials provided evidence for the safety and feasibility of neural stem cell transplantation into the injured cord, whilst two monocenter trials also showed this to be the case for the transplantation of Schwann cells into the posttraumatic cord cavity. These are milestone studies that will facilitate further interventional trials. However, the clinical adoption of such approaches remains unproven, as there is only limited encouraging data, often in single patients, and no proven trial evidence to support regulatory approval.</p>","PeriodicalId":12907,"journal":{"name":"Handbook of clinical neurology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142345568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Almost all young people with MS have a relapsing-remitting course with clinical relapses. Important strides have been made in delineating MS from other ADS subtypes. Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) and aquaporin 4-antibody-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4-NMOSD) were once considered variants of MS; however, studies in the last decade have established that these are in fact distinct entities. Although there are clinical phenotypic overlaps between MOGAD, AQP4-NMOSD, and MS, cumulative biologic, clinical, and pathologic evidence allows discrimination between these conditions. There has been a rapid increase in the number of available disease-modifying therapies for MS and novel treatment strategies are starting to appear for both MOGAD and AQP4-NMOSD.

This chapter discusses the most common hypomyelinating leukodystrophies, including X-linked Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease and other PLP1-related disorders, autosomal recessive Pelizaeus-Merzbacher-like disease, and POLR3-related leukodystrophy. PLP1-related disorders are caused by hemizygous pathogenic variants in the proteolipid protein 1 (PLP1) gene, and encompass classic Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease, the severe connatal form, PLP1-null syndrome, spastic paraplegia type 2, and hypomyelination of early myelinating structures. Pelizaeus-Merzbacher-like disease presents a similar clinical picture to Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease, however, it is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in the GJC2 gene, which encodes for the gap junction protein Connexin-47. POLR3-related leukodystrophy, or 4H leukodystrophy (hypomyelination, hypodontia, and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism), is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in genes encoding specific subunits of the transcription enzyme RNA polymerase III.

Neurologic involvement is determined by the rare development of paraneoplastic syndromes, which are remote effects of cancer.

When compared with natalizumab, the result did not change; AHSCT remained dominant. These results support current guideline recommendations regarding AHSCT for highly active RRMS.
