Journal ArticleDOI

Neurological complications of coronavirus infection; a comparative review and lessons learned during the COVID-19 pandemic.

TL;DR: The most common neurological complaints in COVID-19 were anosmia, ageusia, and headache, but more serious complications, such as stroke, impairment of consciousness, seizures, and encephalopathy, have also been reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Central nervous system-directed effects of FTY720 (fingolimod).

TL;DR: Animal model studies indicate an overall neuroprotective effect of FTY720 mediated at least in part by its actions within the CNS across the broad clinical spectrum of MS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Axonal metabolic recovery in multiple sclerosis patients treated with interferon β-1b

TL;DR: The data suggest that, in addition to losing axons, patients with chronic multiple sclerosis suffer from chronic, sublethal axonal injury that is at least partially reversible with interferon β–1b therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reactive microglia in multiple sclerosis lesions have an increased expression of receptors for the Fc part of IgG.

TL;DR: The FcR on microglia and perivascular macrophages may be of functional importance in antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), phagocytosis, and local immunoregulation, and F cR on endothelium May be of importance in binding and transportation of immune complexes into the CNS.
Journal Article

MHC Class I-Restricted Lysis of Human Oligodendrocytes by Myelin Basic Protein Peptide-Specific CD8 T Lymphocytes

TL;DR: The results support the postulate that autoreactive CD8 cytotoxic T cells can contribute to the tissue injury in MS.
