Many viruses, with lipid envelopes derived from the host cell membranes, have been implicated in the aetiology of multiple sclerosis (MS), and epidemiological studies support an infectious agent. Alternatively the disease is thought by other workers to be auto-immune in nature, and recently much attention has been focused on immunological sensitivity to glycolipids in MS patients. In this paper it is proposed that CNS demyelination could arise in susceptible individuals (HLA type) from an immune response to glycolipids, triggered by the carrier effect of one or more enveloped neurotropic viruses.
许多病毒具有源自宿主细胞膜的脂质包膜,它们被认为与多发性硬化症(MS)的病因有关,流行病学研究也支持存在一种感染因子。另外,其他研究人员认为该疾病本质上是自身免疫性的,最近人们对MS患者对糖脂的免疫敏感性给予了极大关注。本文提出,在易感个体(特定的人类白细胞抗原类型)中,中枢神经系统脱髓鞘可能源于对糖脂的免疫反应,这种反应由一种或多种包膜嗜神经病毒的载体效应引发。
