Phenotypic and functional alterations of myeloid‐derived suppressor cells during the disease course of multiple sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease of the central nervous system involving dysregulated encephalitogenic T cells. Myeloid‐derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) have been recognized for their important function in regulating T‐cell responses. Recent studies have indicated a role for M...

Summary: | Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease of the central nervous system involving dysregulated encephalitogenic T cells. Myeloid‐derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) have been recognized for their important function in regulating T‐cell responses. Recent studies have indicated a role for MDSCs in autoimmune diseases, but their significance in MS is not clear. Here, we assessed the frequencies of CD14+HLA‐DRlow monocytic MDSCs (Mo‐MDSCs) and CD33+CD15+CD11b+HLA‐DRlow granulocytic MDSCs (Gr‐MDSCs) and investigated phenotypic and functional differences of Mo‐MDSCs at different clinical stages of MS and in healthy subjects (HC). Increased frequencies of Mo‐MDSCs (P |
