Increased albumin quotient (QAlb) in patients after first clinical event suggestive of multiple sclerosis is associated with development of brain atrophy and greater disability 48 months later.

The utility of blood-brain barrier (BBB) biomarkers for clinical and magnetic resonance imaging progression in multiple sclerosis (MS) has not been extensively investigated. To determine whether cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) measures of BBB at clinical onset predict radiological and clinical

Cerebrospinal fluid and serum levels of interleukin-8 in patients with multiple sclerosis and its correlation with Q-albumin.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory-demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS). Autoimmune inflammation is common in the early stages of MS and is followed by neurodegenerative processes. The result of these changes is axon and myelin breakdown. The paraclinical

[Evaluation of the functional state of the blood-brain barrier by means of the analysis of total protein, albumin level and albumin index of the cerebrospinal fluid in multiple sclerosis].

Only registered users can translate articles

A method has been evolved for assessing the functional state of the blood-brain barrier based on determinations of albumin level and calculation from it of the so called albumin index in the cerebrospinal fluid. The results obtained by this method were compared with the value of total protein

Liquor:serum quotients of IgG and albumin in patients with meningism, meningitis and multiple sclerosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Liquor:serum quotients of IgG and albumin in patients with meningism, meningitis and multiple sclerosis have been studied. Abnormal quotients indicative of disturbed blood-brain barrier function and/or intrathecal IgG synthesis were found in various proportions of all 3 groups of patients. In some

Ischemia modified albumin is an indicator of oxidative stress in multiple sclerosis.

BACKGROUND Oligodendrocytes need iron in processes of energy generation and myelination. However, excessive levels of iron may exert iron induced oxidative stress and thus lead to tissue degeneration. Monitoring oxidative stress will be of paramount importance in follow-up of patients with many

Evaluation of an albumin-binding gadolinium contrast agent in multiple sclerosis.

OBJECTIVE The first goal of this study is to compare gadofosveset trisodium--a gadolinium agent that reversibly binds to albumin--to an extracellular contrast agent (Gd-DOTA) for the detection of multiple sclerosis lesions. The second goal is to determine the best postinjection time for the

Quantitation of IgG and albumin in CSF and serum from multiple sclerosis patients by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) and albumin from unconcentrated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and non-MS controls were quantitated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The IgG levels, IgG/albumin ratios and IgG indexes were significantly increased in

Therapeutic Plasmapheresis with Albumin Replacement in Alzheimer's Disease and Chronic Progressive Multiple Sclerosis: A Review.

Only registered users can translate articles

Reducing the burden of beta-amyloid accumulation and toxic autoimmunity-related proteins, one of the recognized pathophysiological markers of chronic and common neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and multiple sclerosis (MS), may be a valid alternative therapy to

Regulation of redox forms of plasma thiols by albumin in multiple sclerosis after fasting and methionine loading test.

Only registered users can translate articles

Increases in plasma concentrations of total homocysteine (tHcy) have recently been reported in multiple sclerosis (MS) as the alteration of the methionine cycle for the onset of autoimmune diseases. Homocysteine (Hcy) and cysteine (Cys) are generated by the methionine cycle and transsulfuration

Albumin and multiple sclerosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Leakage of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a common pathological feature in multiple sclerosis (MS). Following a breach of the BBB, albumin, the most abundant protein in plasma, gains access to CNS tissue where it is exposed to an inflammatory milieu and tissue damage, e.g., demyelination. Once in

Albumin and Protein Oxidation are Predictors that Differentiate Relapsing-Remitting from Progressive Clinical Forms of Multiple Sclerosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

The aim of the present study was to evaluate inflammatory, oxidative, and nitrosative stress (IO&NS) blood markers as possible predictors of multiple sclerosis (MS) and its clinical forms. This study included 258 MS patients (175 with relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS) and 83 with progressive MS clinical

Increased cerebrospinal fluid albumin and immunoglobulin A fractions forecast cortical atrophy and longitudinal functional deterioration in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Currently, no unequivocal predictors of disease evolution exist in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Cortical atrophy measurements are, however, closely associated with cumulative disability. OBJECTIVE Here, we aim to forecast longitudinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-driven

Principles of albumin and IgG analyses in neurological disorders. III. Evaluation of IgG synthesis within the central nervous system in multiple sclerosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Fifty-nine multiple sclerosis patients were investigated with regard to blood-brain barrier function by determining the CSF-protein and the CSF/S albumin ratio. Abnormal values were found in 19% and 32% respectively. The occurrence of CSF-IgG elevation due to synthesis within the CNS was analysed by

[Usefulness of the immunoglobulin-albumin ratio compared to electrophoresis in the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis].

Only registered users can translate articles

The results obtained with gel electrophoresis on CSF samples of multiple sclerosis patients are compared with measurements of CSF IgG indexes (IgG/alb and IgG/total protein). The correlation between these parameters is good, provided the upper normal limit of the IgG/alb index is over 35% and an

Trans-blood-brain-barrier albumin leakage and comparisons of intrathecal IgG synthesis calculations in multiple sclerosis patients. Multiple Sclerosis Study Group, Alpha Interferon Study Group, and Azathioprine Study Group.

We compared four equations for estimating intrathecal IgG synthesis (Tibbling and Link IgG index (T/L), Schuller and Sagar (S/S), Reiber and Felgenhauer (R/F), and Tourtellotte (T) equations) using data from chronic progressive MS patients. For normal albumin leakage (AL) (< 75 mg/day-intact BBB), T
