Immune Diseases of the Peripheral Nervous System
1983When considering the immunological mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of any disease of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) three major questions must be asked: 1. What is the target antigen? 2. What causes the immune damage? 3. What triggers the immune response?

Involvement of peripheral nervous system in juvenile Parkinson's disease
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 2009We evaluated, by using electrophysiological techniques, 29 patients with juvenile Parkinson's disease (JP), who had no known causes or clinical signs of neuropathy. Electromyographic evidence of chronic partial denervation with reinnervation was observed in nine patients (34.6%).

IgG4-related disease of the central and peripheral nervous systems
The Lancet Neurology, 2018IgG4-related disease can involve nearly any organ system, including the central and peripheral nervous systems. The pathology findings are consistent from organ to organ, but careful clinicopathological correlation is necessary to establish the diagnosis.

Paraneoplastic Diseases of the Peripheral Nervous System
2016Peripheral nervous system involvement is the most commonly observed condition in patients with paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNS), and its clinical manifestations are highly heterogeneous. The peripheral nervous system can be variously involved, but the most frequently affected sites are the dorsal ganglia and presynaptic nerve endings of the ...

T lymphocyte autoimmunity in peripheral nervous system autoimmune disease
Agents and Actions, 1986Autoaggressive T cells specific for the PNS myelin P2 protein play a central role in the initiation of EAN in the Lewis rat, although there is as yet no direct experimental evidence that the T cells can themselves mediate demyelination in vivo. However, the striking similarities in the pathogenesis of EAN and the Guillain-Barre syndrome suggest that T ...

Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) Myelin Diseases
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in BiologyThis is a review of inherited and acquired causes of human demyelinating neuropathies and a subset of disorders that affect axon-Schwann cell interactions. Nearly all inherited demyelinating neuropathies are caused by mutations in genes that are expressed by myelinating Schwann cells, affecting diverse functions in a cell-autonomous manner.

B vitamins and diseases of the peripheral nervous system
S.S. Korsakov Journal of Neurology and PsychiatryVarious diseases of the peripheral nervous system are associated with metabolic disorders of B vitamins. A lack of neurotropic vitamins, which began in the early stages of the development of a bacterial disease, led to its more rapid development. The article analyzes data on B vitamin deficiency in the pathogenesis of the most dangerous diseases of the

Peripheral nervous system disease in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
2019Objectives: In a multi-ethnic/racial, prospective SLE inception cohort, to determine the frequency, clinical characteristics, associations and outcomes in different types of peripheral nervous system (PNS) disease. Methods: Patients were evaluated annually for 19 neuropsychiatric (NP) events including seven types of PNS disease.

Peripheral nervous system involvement in patients with sickle cell disease
European Journal of Neurology, 2009Peripheral nervous system involvement is rare in sickle cell disease (SCD). The aim of this study is to determine the peripheral nerve involvement electrophysiologically in SCD patients without clinically evident neurological signs, symptoms and to determine the relationship between the frequency of sickle cell crisis and peripheral neuropathy.Fifty ...
