The increased use of newer potent immunomodulatory therapies for multiple sclerosis (MS), including natalizumab, fingolimod, and dimethyl fumarate, has expanded the patient population at risk for developing progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML)

We report a rare case of recrudescence of natalizumab‐induced pneumonitis and peripheral hypereosinophilia, thereby uniquely satisfying the re‐exposure principle outlined by the Naranjo Adverse Drug Reaction Probability Scale. This strengthens the evidence of rare but serious side effects of natalizumab, emphasising the importance of monitoring for ...

Towards Multifocal Displays with Dense Focal Stacks [PDF]
We present a virtual reality display that is capable of generating a dense collection of depth/focal planes. This is achieved by driving a focus-tunable lens to sweep a range of focal lengths at a high frequency and, subsequently, tracking the focal length precisely at microsecond time resolutions using an optical module.

A case of immune reconstitution syndrome complicating progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy after kidney transplant: Clinical, pathological, and radiographic features [PDF]
Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a life‐threatening central nervous system (CNS) disorder, most commonly described in patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

Human Polyomavirus JCPyV and Its Role in Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy and Oncogenesis
The human neurotropic virus JCPyV, a member of the Polyomaviridiae family, is the opportunistic infectious agent of Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML), a fatal disease seen in severe immunosuppressive conditions and, during the last decade,

Different Treatment Outcomes of Multiple Sclerosis Patients Receiving Ocrelizumab or Ofatumumab
Objective B‐cell–depletion via CD20 antibodies is a safe and effective treatment for active relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS). Both ocrelizumab (OCR) and ofatumumab (OFA) have demonstrated efficacy in randomized controlled trials and are approved for treatment of RMS, yet nothing is known on their comparative effectiveness, especially in the real ...

Pembrolizumab for progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy due to primary immunodeficiency
Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a devastating demyelinating disease of the CNS, which develops almost exclusively in immunocompromised patients and is caused by JC virus (JCV), a common polyomavirus.1 So far, treatment efficacy is ...

Glycerophospholipids: Roles in Cell Trafficking and Associated Inborn Errors
ABSTRACT Glycerophospholipids (GPLs) are the main lipid components of cellular membranes. They are implicated in membrane structure, vesicle trafficking, neurotransmission, and cell signalling. GPL molecules are amphiphilic, organized around the three carbons of glycerol. Positions sn‐1 and sn‐2 are each esterified to a fatty acid (FA).

Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy in an immunocompetent patient [PDF]
AbstractProgressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), a demyelinating disease of the brain, is typically diagnosed in immunocompromised persons. Here, we describe the diagnostic challenge of PML in an apparently immunocompetent patient. Thorough analyses, including cytokine release assays and whole exome sequencing, revealed a deficit in the ...
