This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), part of the National Institutes of Health, supports research on the potential role of antibodies targeting the myelin proteolipid protein 1 (PLP1) in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS). The $405,282 award, effective September 5, 2024 through August 31, 2029, is funded under the NINDS Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program. The research aims to: 1) screen serum and cerebrospinal fluid samples from MS patients to determine the prevalence of PLP1 antibodies across the disease spectrum and correlate results with clinical markers, 2) evaluate the distribution of PLP1-associated myelin complex pathology in human MS lesions, and 3) identify and confirm the epitopic targets of MS-related antibodies. The goal is to establish the role of complex PLP1 antibodies in MS pathogenesis and develop improved bioassays for disease identification and therapeutic approaches. The work is being conducted by the University of Colorado-Denver.
