Abstract
We studied the baseline expression level of 25 interferon-regulated genes (MxA, GPR3, IL17RC, ISG15, TRAIL, OASL, IFIT1, IFIT2, RSAD2, OAS3, IFI44L, TRIM22, IL10, CXCL10, STAT1, OAS1, OAS2, IFNAR1, IFNAR2, IFNβ, ISG20, IFI6, PKR, IRF7, USP18), recurrently proposed in the literature as predictive biomarkers of interferon-beta treatment response, in whole blood of 10 "responders" and 10 "non-responders" multiple sclerosis relapsing-remitting patients, retrospectively selected on the basis of stringent clinical criteria after a five years follow-up. However, we cannot confirm the predictive value of these candidate biomarkers.Entities:
