Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating disease of the central nervous system with complex immunopathogenesis. Using the 2-D DIGE technology, we separate CSF proteins from patients with active MS and control subjects. Three of the seven differential proteins identified were related with complement system, and the network analysis of the differential proteins revealed complement activation involvement in active MS. Complement C4b (gamma chain) was confirmed elevated by performing western blotting analysis (P < 0.01). The present results are an independent quantitative proteomic measure in CSF from active MS patients. The differential expression of the complement C4b and related proteins in CSF provides potential biomarkers as well as evidence for the involvement of complement activation in the pathogenesis of MS disease.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D009103 Multiple Sclerosis An autoimmune disorder mainly affecting young adults and characterized by destruction of myelin in the central nervous system. Pathologic findings include multiple sharply demarcated areas of demyelination throughout the white matter of the central nervous system. Clinical manifestations include visual loss, extra-ocular movement disorders, paresthesias, loss of sensation, weakness, dysarthria, spasticity, ataxia, and bladder dysfunction. The usual pattern is one of recurrent attacks followed by partial recovery (see MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, RELAPSING-REMITTING), but acute fulminating and chronic progressive forms (see MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, CHRONIC PROGRESSIVE) also occur.
