Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, inflammatory, and demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS). Its etiology is still unknown; nevertheless, the abundance of immune cells in CNS lesions of MS patients supports the notion that MS is an immune-mediated disorder[1,2]. On the other hand mitochondrial dysfunction might have a central role in the pathophysiology of MS. Different studies have reported a mitochondrial impairment in the CNS but the results in the immune system are still inconsistent[3].
Cellular immune function depends on energy supply and mitochondrial function that is why this study has investigated mitochondrial respiration (Oxygraph-2k; OROBOROS Instruments, Innsbruck, Austria) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), an established model to investigate the mitochondrial impairments. Mitochondrial respiration was assessed in intact PBMCs in 45 individuals with a diagnosis of MS compared with 29 healthy age gender-matched controls using high-resolution respirometry. Furthermore we analyzed superoxide production of lymphocytes (they represent between 70-90% of PBMCs cells) by median fluorescent intensity (MFI) of MitoSoxTM (Red mitocondrial superoxide indicator, Molecular Probes, Invitrogen, Barcelona, Spain) by flow citometry.
Individuals with MS showed a significant increase in ROUTINE respiration (p=0.045), uncoupled respiration (after oligomycin addition p=0.035), as well as in the maximum respiratory capacity (after carbonyl cyanide-p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone titration p=0.035). Finally Antimycin A was added but not significant differences were founded between groups (Figure 1). In addition, PBMCs of these patients produced more superoxide than those in control group individuals (p=0.021) (Figure 2).
PBMCs cells in MS patients show a significant increase of uncoupled respiration which is consistent with immune system activation and with an autoimmune disease. A higher maximal uncoupled respiration can indicate a higher capacity of mitochondrial respiration and is related to superoxide production which is also higher in MS patients[4]. In conclusion, our results support systemic involvement in MS, and reveal the study of mitochondrial function in blood cells as a source of potential biomarkers of the disease.
