Abstract
The objective is to characterize differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) and Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP) through high-throughput analysis. Sera from 11 healthy controls (HCs), 21 GBS and 19 CIDP patients were subjected to Olink Proteomics Analysis. In the comparison between CIDP and GBS groups, up-regulation of ITM2A and down-regulation of NTF4 were observed. Comparing GBS with HCs revealed 18 up-regulated and 4 down-regulated proteins. Comparing CIDP with the HCs identified 15 up-regulated and 4 down-regulated proteins. Additionally, the correlation between clinical characteristics and DEPs were uncovered. In conclusion, the DEPs have significant potential to advance our understanding of the pathogenesis in these debilitating neurological disorders.

Secondary Central Nervous System Demyelinating Disorders in the Elderly: A Narrative Review. Healthcare (Basel) 2023; 11:2126. [PMID: 37570367 PMCID: PMC10418902 DOI: 10.3390/healthcare11152126] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Revised: 07/14/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Secondary demyelinating diseases comprise a wide spectrum group of pathological conditions and may either be attributed to a disorder primarily affecting the neurons or axons, followed by demyelination, or to an underlying condition leading to secondary damage of the myelin sheath. In the elderly, primary demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system (CNS), such as multiple sclerosis, are relatively uncommon. However, secondary causes of CNS demyelination may often occur and in this case, extensive diagnostic workup is usually needed. Infectious, postinfectious, or postvaccinal demyelination may be observed, attributed to age-related alterations of the immune system in this population. Osmotic disturbances and nutritional deficiencies, more commonly observed in the elderly, may lead to conditions such as pontine/extrapontine myelinolysis, Wernicke encephalopathy, and demyelination of the posterior columns of the spinal cord. The prevalence of malignancies is higher in the elderly, sometimes leading to radiation-induced, immunotherapy-related, or paraneoplastic CNS demyelination. This review intends to aid clinical neurologists in broadening their diagnostic approach to secondary CNS demyelinating diseases in the elderly. Common clinical conditions leading to secondary demyelination and their clinical manifestations are summarized here, while the current knowledge of the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms is additionally presented.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitors are monoclonal antibodies that are commonly used in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. A rare side effect of these biological agents is chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, which is a debilitating disease characterized by weakness, sensory dysfunction, and diminished or absent reflexes. We present the first reported case of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy after treatment with the tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitor biosimilar, infliximab-dyyp (Inflectra).

Abstract
Crohn’s disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract that is frequently accompanied by systemic complications including peripheral neuropathies. Anti-tumor necrosis factor-alpha agents such as infliximab are an established treatment for immune-mediated diseases. However, they have been associated with adverse effects, including local reactions, infections, congestive heart failure, malignancies, and, rarely, they can cause neurological adverse effects on the central nervous system, as well as peripheral nervous system demyelination. Here, we report the case of an 80-year-old man with CD on infliximab therapy who presented with progressive weakness and numbness. A neurological examination and a nerve conduction study suggested chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). The patient was started on oral corticosteroids and experienced transient improvement of his symptoms at the end of this course. Thus, CIDP could be one of the extraintestinal presentations of CD.

Abstract
The calcineurin inhibitors cyclosporine and tacrolimus are used for their immunosuppressive effects. Neurotoxic side effects include tremor, paresthesia, and headache. Rarer neurotoxicities include seizure, posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome, and encephalopathy. Tacrolimus tends to be more neurotoxic than cyclosporine. Management of toxicities associated with calcineurin inhibitors includes dose reduction, switching between calcineurin inhibitors, or switching to a calcineurin-free regimen. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors are used in autoimmune diseases. Management of demyelinating conditions among patients treated with anti-TNF should follow standard of care and withdrawal of the anti-TNF. This drug class should be avoided in patients with a history of demyelinating conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is a rare immune-mediated disease of the peripheral nervous system characterized by motor weakness, sensory symptoms, areflexia, and specific electrophysiological findings. Rarely, Anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (anti-TNFa) agents, which are used as a treatment for immune-mediated diseases, can cause neurological adverse effects on the central nervous system, as well as peripheral nervous system demyelination. CASE REPORT We describe the case of a 63-year-old woman with ankylosing spondylitis who developed chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy after infliximab initiation. Considering the absence of other trigger agents from her medical history and the symptom onset, we assume that the development of CIDP is secondary to the anti-TNFa treatment. CONCLUSION Although demyelinating neurological complications of anti-TNF are rare, pharmacovigilance is required. HIPPOKRATIA 2019, 23(4): 179-180.

Abstract
Introduction Peripheral neuropathy (PN) is a common neurological condition causing symmetrical and diffuse damage in nerves. The etiology of PN includes systemic diseases, toxic exposure, medications, infections, and hereditary diseases. Omalizumab is a humanized monoclonal anti-IgE antibody that exerts its activity by binding to free IgE in circulation. Aim To investigate the relationship between omalizumab and peripheral neuropathy. Material and methods The study included 30 patients who underwent omalizumab therapy (Xolair) due to the diagnosis of chronic urticaria. A detailed neurological and physical examination was performed in each patient both before and 3 months after the therapy. Electrophysiological examination was also performed using a Medelec Synergy instrument. Results The 30 patients included 8 (26.7%) men and 22 (73.3%) women with a mean age of 37.5 ±14.14 years. No serious side effect of the medication was detected in any patient although local wound irritation occurred in 3 (10%) patients. Moreover, no change occurred in the pre-treatment Neuropathy Symptom Score (NSS) or Neurological Disability Score (NDS) of the patients and no pathological values that could result in neuropathy were observed during motor/sensory nerve conduction. However, significant changes were detected in the sensory and motor components of the nerves with regards to pre- and post-treatment values. Conclusions Omalizumab therapy caused no peripheral neuropathy in any of our patients but altered the latency, amplitude, and velocity values of the peripheral nerves.
