RT Journal Article T1 Soluble Receptor Isoform of IFN-Beta (sIFNAR2) in Multiple Sclerosis Patients and Their Association With the Clinical Response to IFN-Beta Treatment A1 Aliaga-Gaspar, Pablo A1 Hurtado-Guerrero, Isaac A1 Ciano-Petersen, Nicolas Lundahl A1 Urbaneja, Patricia A1 Brichette Mieg, Isabel A1 Virginia Reyes, Virginia A1 Rodríguez-Bada, José Luis A1 Alvarez-Lafuente, Roberto A1 Arroyo, Rafael A1 Quintana, Ester A1 Ramió-Torrentà, Lluis A1 Alonso, Ana A1 Leyva-Fernández, Laura A1 Fernández-Fernández, Óscar A1 Oliver-Martos, Begoña K1 Receptores - Efectos de los medicamentos K1 Interferón AB Protein and mRNA levels of sIFNAR2 increased after IFN-b treatment. According to the clinical response, only non-responders increased sIFNAR2 significantly at both protein and mRNA levels. sIFNAR2 gene expression correlated with the transmembraneisoform expression and was 2.3-fold higher. While MxA gene expression increased significantly after treatment, IFNAR1 and IFNAR2 only slightly increased. After short-term IFN-b in vitro induction of PBMC, 6/7 patients increased the sIFNAR2 expression.IFN-b administration induces the production of sIFNAR2 in RRMS and higher levels might be associated to the reduction of therapeutic response. Thus, levels of sIFNAR2 could be monitored to optimize an effective response to IFN-b therapy.
