Ocrelizumab B cell depletion has no effect on HERV RNA expression in PBMC in MS patients (2024)
Journal Article
Tarlinton, R., Tanasescu, R., Shannon-Lowe, C., & Gran, B. (2024). Ocrelizumab B cell depletion has no effect on HERV RNA expression in PBMC in MS patients. Multiple Sclerosis and Related Disorders, 86, Article 105597. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msard.2024.105597

Background
Epstein barr virus (EBV) infection of B cells is now understood to be one of the triggering events for the development of Multiple Sclerosis (MS), a progressive immune-mediated disease of the central nervous system. EBV infection is also... Read More about Ocrelizumab B cell depletion has no effect on HERV RNA expression in PBMC in MS patients.

The association between human endogenous retroviruses and multiple sclerosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2017)
Journal Article
Morandi, E., Tanasescu, R., Tarlinton, R. E., Constantinescu, C. S., Zhang, W., Tench, C. R., & Gran, B. (2017). The association between human endogenous retroviruses and multiple sclerosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis. PLoS ONE, 12(2), Article e0172415. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0172415

Background:
The interaction between genetic and environmental factors is crucial to multiple sclerosis (MS) pathogenesis. Human Endogenous Retroviruses (HERVs) are endogenous viral elements of the human genome whose expression is associated with MS....

Multiple sclerosis between genetics and infections: human endogenous retroviruses in monocytes and macrophages (2015)
Journal Article
Morandi, E., Tarlinton, R., & Gran, B. (2015). Multiple sclerosis between genetics and infections: human endogenous retroviruses in monocytes and macrophages. Frontiers in Immunology, 6, https://doi.org/10.3389/fimmu.2015.00647

The etiology of multiple sclerosis (MS) is still unknown, but there is strong evidence that genetic predisposition associated with environmental factors can trigger the disease. An estimated 30 million years ago, exogenous retroviruses are thought to...
