Abstract

V originále

In the present study, T-lymphocyte populations and pro-inflammatory as well as suppressive cytokine profiles were evaluated in detail in previously untreated patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). CD4(+) and CD8(+) naive, central memory (Tcm), effector memory (Tem), terminal effector memory (Ttem), CD4(+) regulatory T-cells (Treg) and CD8(+) T-suppressor cells (Ts) were analysed using flow cytometry, and levels of ten plasma cytokines were determined using fluorescent bead-based immunoassay. We evaluated two groups of RRMS with minor (n=33) and major (n=25) clinical impairment and compared them with healthy controls (n=40) in order to detect any correlation between severity of MS clinical symptoms and immune disturbances. In conclusion, we demonstrate complex immune dysbalances in untreated MS patients.
