Project description:Construction of gene expression-based classifiers to predict the different Multiple Sclerosis stages from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) transcriptome of MS patients and controls.
Project description:We measured global mRNA expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from 182 individuals, comprising of 142 multiple sclerosis (MS) patients affected with distinct MS clinical forms and 40 healthy controls.
Project description:We measured global mRNA expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from 76 individuals, comprising of 49 multiple sclerosis (MS) patients affected with distinct MS clinical forms and 27 healthy controls.
Project description:Affymetrix GeneChip Human Gene 1.0 ST Array was applied to compare the expression profiles in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) between healthy controls and multiple sclerosis patients(MS pt). It suggested that certain genes involved in apoptosis pathway have been changed regulated in PBMC from MS pt. Applying Affymetrix GeneChip Human Gene 1.0 ST Array and the mixed effects model for gene set analysis, we compared gene expression profiles between 8 multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and 4 healthy controls (HC).
Project description:The aim of this study was to identify differentially expressed genes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from MS patients that were responders or non-responders to the neuroantigen myelin basic protein. Using microarray we measured mRNA-expression levels in freshly isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 17 untreated patients with multiple sclerosis. Based on studies, measuring the responses of blood derived T-cells to myelin basic protein ex vivo, these 17 untreated MS-patients can be divided into two groups: 4 of the untreated multiple sclerosis patients had T-cells that responded to myelin basic protein ex vivo whereas 13 untreated MS patients had T-cells that did not respond to myelin basic protein ex vivo.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to characterize the transcriptional effects induced by intramuscular IFN-beta-1a treatment (Avonex, 30 µg once weekly) in patients with relapsing-remitting form of multiple sclerosis (MS). By using Affymetrix DNA microarrays, we obtained genome-wide expression profiles of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 24 MS patients within the first four weeks of IFN-beta administration. Keywords: Multiple sclerosis, Interferon, Pharmacogenomics, Affymetrix EDTA blood samples were taken from all patients immediately before first, second and fifth IFN-beta injection. Total RNA of Ficoll-isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells from each sample was extracted, labelled and hybridized to Affymetrix Human Genome U133 A and B arrays to quantify the mRNA levels.
