Multiple sclerosis: In situ evidence for antibody‐ and complement‐mediated demyelination

Storch, Maria K., Piddlesden, Sara, Haltia, Matti, Iivanainen, Matti, Morgan, Paul, Lassmann, Hans·1998·Annals of Neurology

Abstract

We describe a case of multiple sclerosis characterized by deposition of immunoglobulin and complement in the areas of active demyelination. This was particularly evident for the C9neo antigen, which is a marker for the activated lytic complement complex and was exclusively deposited in the areas of active myelin destruction. In addition, macrophages in the lesions contained degradation products that were immunoreactive for myelin antigens, immunoglobulins, and C9neo antigen. Destruction of myelin sheaths was associated with incomplete loss of oligodendrocytes in the active areas and reappearance of oligodendrocytes with remyelination in the inactive plaque center.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
