Sample information of multiple sclerosis:

Detected Sample blood
Sample Detail N/A
Detected Method Western blot
Disease MS
Disease subtype N/A
Population N/A
Sample Size 26 MS and 10 healthy donors

Literature information of multiple sclerosis :

Pubmed ID 16210596
Year 2005
Title Proinflammatory stimulation and pioglitazone treatment regulate peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from healthy controls and multiple sclerosis patients

Results of multiple sclerosis :

Expression down-regulation
Risk type Disease risk
Result Surprisingly, MS patients exhibited decreased PPAR-gamma levels compared with controls.
Mechanism/Pathway Differences in PPAR-gamma expression were accompanied by changes in PPAR-gamma DNA-binding activity, as preincubation with pioglitazone increased DNA binding of PPAR-gamma.
