Discordant functional and inflammatory parameters in multiple sclerosis patients after autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation
2004
This article describes outcomes in four patients with advanced multiple sclerosis up to two years after autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation using a total-body irradiation-based preparative regimen. MRI and C SF analyses demonstrated clear suppression of the inflammatory processes. The results demonstrate however, a dissociation of inflammation parameters and functional disability findings raising questions about optimal future stem cell transplantatio n strategies for this disease.
