Sample information of multiple sclerosis:

Descent N/A
Disease MS

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 :

Result Effect of PIO treatment on PPAR-γDNA-binding activity and NF-kB DNA-binding activity in PBMCs from MS patients
Mechanism/pathway In MS patients, pioglitazone-induced increase in PPAR-gamma DNA-binding activity and decrease in NF-kappaB DNA-binding activity was only observed in the absence of an acute MS relapse.
