Biogenic amines are direct mediators of interactions between immune and nervous systems implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS). Recently, great attention has been drawn to studying the effects of biogenic amines on Th17-cells, which play one of the central roles in the development of inflammatory lesions in MS. Results of these studies suggest that, depending on the activation of particular receptors, biogenic amines can both enhance and inhibit Th17-cell functions. Based on these data, targeting biogenic amines and their receptors could be explored as a new kind of additional disease-modifying treatment of MS.
生物胺是参与多发性硬化症(MS)发病机制的免疫和神经系统相互作用的直接介质。最近,人们越来越关注研究生物胺对 Th17 细胞的影响,Th17 细胞在 MS 炎症病变的发展中起着核心作用之一。这些研究的结果表明,根据特定受体的激活情况,生物胺既可以增强也可以抑制 Th17 细胞的功能。基于这些数据,针对生物胺及其受体的治疗方法可能会被探索作为 MS 的一种新型的附加疾病修饰治疗方法。
