Twenty-one patients (age: 53.4 +/- 8.4, n = 3, male) with primary restless legs syndrome and 13 patients (age: 63.0 +/- 8.2, n = 1, male) with secondary restless legs syndrome associated with small fibre neuropathy were compared with 20 healthy subjects (age: 58.0 +/- 7.0; n = 2, male). Differential diagnosis of secondary restless legs syndrome associated with small fibre neuropathy was based on clinical symptoms and confirmed with skin biopsies in all patients. A comprehensive quantitative sensory testing protocol encompassing thermal and mechanical detection and pain thresholds, as devised by the German Research Network on Neuropathic Pain, was performed on the clinically more affected foot between 2 pm and 1 am when restless legs syndrome symptoms were present in all patients. Patients with primary restless legs syndrome showed hyperalgesia to blunt pressure (P < 0.001), pinprick (P < 0.001) and vibratory hyperaesthesia (P < 0.001). Patients with secondary restless legs syndrome associated with small fibre neuropathy showed thermal hypoaesthesia to cold (A delta-fibre mediated) and warm (C-fibre mediated) (all P < 0.001) and hyperalgesia to pinprick (P < 0.001). Static mechanical hyperalgesia in primary and secondary restless legs syndrome is consistent with the concept of central disinhibition of nociceptive pathways, which might be induced by conditioning afferent input from damaged small fibre neurons in secondary restless legs syndrome."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1093/brain/awq026"],["dc.identifier.isi","000276046000012"],["dc.identifier.pmid","20194142"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/6232"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/20388"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Oxford Univ Press"],["dc.relation.issn","0006-8950"],["dc.rights","Goescholar"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.title","Thermal hypoaesthesia differentiates secondary restless legs syndrome associated with small fibre neuropathy from primary restless legs syndrome"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Since oxygen-derived free radicals are an important factor leading to tissue damage in inflammatory multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions, research on antioxidative systems is essential to identify endogenous factors which can possibly counteract oxidative damage. As an important scavenging enzyme family, peroxiredoxins (PRDXs) play a crucial role in preventing oxidative damage; however little is known about their expression and function in MS lesions. In the present study we examined the expression of PRDX2 in white matter lesions of MS patients with long-standing, chronic disease. PRDX2 expression was investigated by immunohistochemistry in the context of oxidative stress and inflammation (determined by microglia/macrophage and T cell infiltration) in ten MS autopsy cases as well as seven control autopsy cases. PRDX2 was found to be upregulated in white matter MS lesions mainly in astrocytes, and its expression level was positively correlated with the degree of inflammation and oxidative stress. Our data suggest that PRDX2 expression contributes to the resistance of astrocytes against oxidative damage."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3390/ijms18040760"],["dc.identifier.isi","000402639400085"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/14785"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/42804"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","PUB_WoS_Import"],["dc.publisher","Mdpi Ag"],["dc.relation.eissn","1422-0067"],["dc.relation.issn","1422-0067"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.title","Expression of the Antioxidative Enzyme Peroxiredoxin 2 in Multiple Sclerosis Lesions in Relation to Inflammation"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Inflammation and related oxidative stress have been proposed as central mediators of cortical damage, yet meningeal and cortical inflammation is not specific to MS, but also occurs in other diseases. The first aim of this study was to test whether cortical demyelination was specific for demyelinating CNS diseases compared to other CNS disorders with prominent meningeal and cortical inflammation. The second aim was to assess whether oxidative tissue damage was associated with the extent of neuroaxonal damage. We studied a large cohort of patients diagnosed with demyelinating CNS diseases and non‐demyelinating diseases of autoimmune, infectious, neoplastic or metabolic origin affecting the meninges and the cortex. Included were patients with MS, acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM), neuromyelitis optica (NMO), viral and bacterial meningoencephalitis, progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE), carcinomatous and lymphomatous meningitis and metabolic disorders such as extrapontine myelinolysis, thus encompassing a wide range of adaptive and innate cytokine signatures. Using myelin protein immunohistochemistry, we found cortical demyelination in MS, ADEM, PML and extrapontine myelinolysis, whereby each condition showed a disease‐specific histopathological pattern. Remarkably, extensive ribbon‐like subpial demyelination was only observed in MS, thus providing an important pathogenetic and diagnostic cue. Cortical oxidative injury was detected in both demyelinating and non‐demyelinating CNS disorders. Our data demonstrate that meningeal and cortical inflammation alone accompanied by oxidative stress are not sufficient to generate the extensive subpial cortical demyelination found in MS, but require other MS‐specific factors."],["dc.description.sponsorship","National Multiple Sclerosis Society http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/100000890"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1111/bpa.12813"],["dc.identifier.eissn","1750-3639"],["dc.identifier.issn","1015-6305"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/82309"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-399"],["dc.relation.eissn","1750-3639"],["dc.relation.issn","1015-6305"],["dc.rights","This is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited."],["dc.title","Extensive subpial cortical demyelination is specific to multiple sclerosis"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
