DIAGNOSTIC AND PROGNOSTIC SIGNIFICANCE OF INTRATHECAL SYNTHESIS OF IMMUNOGLOBULIN FREE LIGHT CHAINS IN MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS

Increased intrathecal synthesis and oligoclonal banding of immunoglobulins (Ig) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are major immunological findings in multiple sclerosis. Free light chains are fragments of Ig molecules that are produced in parallel to oligoclonal Ig, and their production reflects total Ig...

DIAGNOSTIC AND PROGNOSTIC SIGNIFICANCE OF INTRATHECAL SYNTHESIS OF IMMUNOGLOBULIN FREE LIGHT CHAINS IN MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS
description Increased intrathecal synthesis and oligoclonal banding of immunoglobulins (Ig) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are major immunological findings in multiple sclerosis. Free light chains are fragments of Ig molecules that are produced in parallel to oligoclonal Ig, and their production reflects total Ig synthesis within central nervous system. Assessment of intrathecal kappaand lambda free light chain production within CNS compartment will help to improve diagnosis and prediction of outcomes in multiple sclerosis. Concentrations of kappa and lambda free light chains and clonality of immunoglobulin pattern synthesis were studied in paired CSF and serum samples of 151 patients, including 92 patients with multiple sclerosis, and 33 patients with clinically isolated syndrome which later was transformed into the definite multiple sclerosis. A control group consisted of 26 patients with other inflammatory diseases of central nervous system. Several Ig parameters have been determined in the patients, i.e., Ig clonality in CSF; concentrations of free light chains (both kappaand lambda-) in CSF; as well as their indexes and ratios. It was established that synthesis of kappa free light chains were significantly elevated in patients with multiple sclerosis.
