The majority of patients with multiple sclerosis have an abnormality of their spinal fluid immunoglobulins. This alteration is manifested as patterns of diffuse protein bands in the gamma globulin region following electrophoresis. This pattern has been termed one of restricted heterogeneity, or an oligoclonal pattern. We have found changes in the banding pattern of some patients studied longitudinally. Since the significance of these findings may be relevant to the pathogenesis of this notoriously waxing and waning disease, we discuss the importance of methodologies as well as the concept that IgM and IgA may be relevant to the interpretation of these observations.
大多数多发性硬化症患者的脑脊液免疫球蛋白存在异常。这种改变表现为电泳后γ球蛋白区域弥漫性蛋白带的模式。这种模式被称为限制性异质性模式或寡克隆模式。我们发现一些纵向研究的患者的条带模式有变化。由于这些发现的意义可能与这种众所周知的病情反复的疾病的发病机制相关,我们讨论了方法学的重要性以及IgM和IgA可能与这些观察结果的解释相关的概念。
