Journal ArticleDOI

A “candidate-interactome” aggregate analysis of genome-wide association data in multiple sclerosis

TL;DR: The interaction between genotype and Epstein Barr virus emerges as relevant for multiple sclerosis etiology, and also other viruses have a similar potential, though probably less relevant in epidemiological terms.
Journal ArticleDOI

CD161highCD8+T cells bear pathogenetic potential in multiple sclerosis

TL;DR: Variations of CD161 expression on CD8(+) T cells identify a subset of lymphocytes with proinflammatory characteristics that have not been previously reported in multiple sclerosis and are likely to contribute to disease immunopathology.
Journal Article

Phenotypic and cytokine analysis of human peripheral blood gamma delta T cells expressing NK cell receptors.

TL;DR: The results suggest that activation of most gamma delta T cells is regulated by signaling events occurring via both the TCR and the NKR, and show that peripheral blood gammaDelta T cells may function as a source of the proinflammatory cytokines IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha.
Journal ArticleDOI

Riluzole in patients with hereditary cerebellar ataxia: a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial

TL;DR: The findings lend support to the idea that riluzole could be a treatment for cerebellar ataxia, and longer studies and disease-specific trials are needed to confirm whether these findings can be applied in clinical practice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of Bacille Calmette-Guèrin (BCG) in multiple sclerosis.

TL;DR: Adjuvant therapy with BCG vaccine was safe and merits study in MS and MRI activity was significantly reduced.
