Changes is lymphocyte subpopulations in peripheral blood have been proposed as biomarkers for evaluation of disease activity in multiple sclerosis (MS). Serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) is a biomarker reflecting neuro-axonal injury in MS that could be used to monitor disease activity, response to drugs and to prognosticate disease course. Here we show a moderate correlation between sNfL and lymphocyte cell subpopulations, and our data furthermore suggest that sNfL and specific immune cell subpopulations together could predict future disease worsening in MS.
外周血淋巴细胞亚群的变化已被提议作为多发性硬化症(MS)疾病活动评估的生物标志物。血清神经丝轻链(sNfL)是一种反映 MS 神经轴突损伤的生物标志物,可用于监测疾病活动、药物反应和预测疾病进程。在这里,我们显示 sNfL 与淋巴细胞细胞亚群之间存在中度相关性,并且我们的数据进一步表明,sNfL 和特定的免疫细胞亚群一起可以预测 MS 未来的疾病恶化。
