Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen 1 antibody-based indices are increased in patients with multiple sclerosis
Background
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic central nervous system (CNS) disease, which is diagnosed by a combination of clinical symptoms and magnetic resonance imaging and measurement of an increased intrathecal antibody synthesis. Genetic as well as environmental factors influence onset of the disease, where especially Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection is directly involved in MS development. In this open retrospective study, we aimed to elaborate whether various serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-based EBV antibody indices may aid in the diagnosis of MS.
Methods
Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen (EBNA)1 IgG concentrations in serum and CSF of relapsing-remitting (RR)MS patients (n=61) (M:F 28:33, average 40 years), optic neuritis patients (n=26) (M:F 9:17, average 47 years) and healthy controls (HCs) (n=15) (M:F 8:7, average 43 years) were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The obtained EBNA1 IgG levels were compared to factors such as total IgG, albumin concentrations, specific antibody index, and various serum- and CSF-based indices.
Results
Significantly elevated EBNA1 IgG levels were detected in serum and CSF of RRMS patients compared to HCs. CSF EBNA1 IgG and indices based on specific CSF EBNA1 IgG associated with CSF albumin or serum EBNA1 IgG associated with total serum IgG obtained the highest sensitivities and complemented the IgG index and oligoclonal bands.
Conclusion
These findings indicate that aforementioned indices may supplement existing indices and aid in the diagnosis of MS.
期刊介绍:
Multiple Sclerosis is an area of ever expanding research and escalating publications. Multiple Sclerosis and Related Disorders is a wide ranging international journal supported by key researchers from all neuroscience domains that focus on MS and associated disease of the central nervous system. The primary aim of this new journal is the rapid publication of high quality original research in the field. Important secondary aims will be timely updates and editorials on important scientific and clinical care advances, controversies in the field, and invited opinion articles from current thought leaders on topical issues. One section of the journal will focus on teaching, written to enhance the practice of community and academic neurologists involved in the care of MS patients. Summaries of key articles written for a lay audience will be provided as an on-line resource.
A team of four chief editors is supported by leading section editors who will commission and appraise original and review articles concerning: clinical neurology, neuroimaging, neuropathology, neuroepidemiology, therapeutics, genetics / transcriptomics, experimental models, neuroimmunology, biomarkers, neuropsychology, neurorehabilitation, measurement scales, teaching, neuroethics and lay communication.
