Gut microbiota from multiple sclerosis patients enables spontaneous autoimmune encephalomyelitis in mice
Open accessAbstract
, an organism shown to induce a protective immunoregulatory profile in vitro. Immune cells from mouse recipients of MS-twin samples produced less IL-10 than immune cells from mice colonized with healthy-twin samples. IL-10 may have a regulatory role in spontaneous CNS autoimmunity, as neutralization of the cytokine in mice colonized with healthy-twin fecal samples increased disease incidence. These findings provide evidence that MS-derived microbiota contain factors that precipitate an MS-like autoimmune disease in a transgenic mouse model. They hence encourage the detailed search for protective and pathogenic microbial components in human MS.

The microbiota composition differs significantly between healthy controls and patients affected by neurodegenerative disorders such as multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, and neuropsychiatric disorders.
“The microbiota composition differs significantly between healthy controls and patients affected by neurodegenerative disorders (such as multiple sclerosis (MS), Alzheimer’s (AD) and Parkinson’s (PD) diseases) (20, 22, 23, 32, 111–115), and neuropsychiatric disorders (NPS) (30), like major depressive and mood disorders.”

Transplanting multiple sclerosis twins' intestinal microbes into germ-free animals genetically susceptible to experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis promoted the disease in vivo with significantly higher incidence than transplanting healthy twins' microbes.
“However, the remarkable finding was that transplanting the MS-twins’ intestinal microbes into GF animals, genetically susceptible to developing experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) was enough to promote the disease in vivo with a significantly higher incidence than by transplanting the healthy twins’ microbes (112).”

“Multiple sclerosis (MS), an autoimmune demyelinating disorder, has been linked to alterations in gut microbiota that skew T cell differentiation toward Th17 and away from Treg phenotypes [110–112].”

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.
