    Journal:  Selective Ammonolysis of Bioderived Esters for Biobased Amide Synthesis. (Pubmed Central) -  Nov 17, 2021   
    To improve the selectivity to unsaturated amides rather than byproducts, the effects of thermal conditions and additives in dimethyl fumarate ammonolysis were examined. Lower temperature and decreasing methoxide ion concentration in the solution relative to the base case conditions increased the fumaramide selectivity from 67.1 to 90.6%.

    Journal:  Pivotal Trials in Multiple Sclerosis: Similarities Prove Not to Be Useful. (Pubmed Central) -  Nov 2, 2021   
    The objective is to stimulate a discussion about the need to improve research strategies. The discovery of new drugs studied without personalized criteria does not allow for useful advances in knowledge.

    Preclinical, Journal:  Neuroprotection by dimethyl fumarate following ventral root crush in C57BL/6 J mice. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 31, 2021   
    The results indicated that treatment with DMF, at a dose of 90 mg/kg, promoted neuroprotection and immunomodulation towards an anti-inflammatory response. It also resulted in greater preservation of inhibitory synapses and reduced astroglial reactivity, providing a more favorable environment for sensorimotor recovery.

    Journal:  Different Fumaric Acid Esters Elicit Distinct Pharmacologic Responses. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 30, 2021   
    Fumaric acid esters exhibit different biodistribution and may elicit different biological responses; furthermore, pharmacodynamic effects of combinations differ unpredictably from monotherapy. The strong potential to induce lymphopenia in patients with MS may be a result of activation of apoptosis pathways by MEF compared with DMF.

    Clinical, Journal:  Safety and persistence of dimethyl fumarate as a treatment for relapsing-remitting multiple-sclerosis. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 27, 2021   
    The persistence of the medication was  similar to that found in pivotal trials. The significant association found  between a decreased lymphocyte count over the first 6 months of  treatment and the development of severe lymphopenia by the end of the  study suggests a connection between both variables, which could be  instrumental in being able to predict and even prevent the occurrence of  such lymphopenias.

    Clinical, Journal, Heterogeneity:  A two-stage prediction model for heterogeneous effects of treatments. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 27, 2021   
    We apply the approach to a network meta-analysis of three randomized clinical trials comparing the relapses in Natalizumab, Glatiramer Acetate, and Dimethyl Fumarate, including 3590 patients diagnosed with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis...For high-risk patients, the treatment that minimizes the risk of relapse in 2 years is Natalizumab, whereas Dimethyl Fumarate might be a better option for low-risk patients. Our approach can be easily extended to all outcomes of interest and has the potential to inform a personalized treatment approach.

    Journal:  Interventions to Increase Leukocyte Testing during Treatment with Dimethyl Fumarate. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 27, 2021   
    The WBC monitoring rate increased by 3.8% for each additional intervention used (95% CI 1.2-6.4%, p = 0.005). Interventions focused on the physician, including academic detailing, were associated with improved WBC monitoring for patients at risk for leukopenia from DMF treatment.

    Journal:  Wdr1 and cofilin are necessary mediators of immune-cell-specific apoptosis triggered by Tecfidera. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 25, 2021   
    On-target Keap1-ligand-engagement is accompanied by dissociation of Wdr1 from Keap1 and subsequent coordination with cofilin, intercepting Bax. This phagocytic-specific cell-killing program is recapitulated by whole-animal administration of dimethyl fumarate, where individual depletions of the players identified above robustly suppress apoptosis.

    Journal:  Rituximab versus natalizumab, fingolimod, and dimethyl fumarate in multiple sclerosis treatment. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 22, 2021   
    Although RTX demonstrated similar effectiveness and discontinuation compared to NTZ, RTX had superior effectiveness during months 6-24 and fewer discontinuations when excluding discontinuations due to insurance issues. Results suggest superiority of RTX in reducing disease activity and maintaining long-term treatment in a real-world MS cohort.

    Clinical, Journal, Real-world evidence:  Three-Year Effectiveness of Dimethyl Fumarate in Multiple Sclerosis: A Prospective Multicenter Real-World Study. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 22, 2021   
    Results suggest superiority of RTX in reducing disease activity and maintaining long-term treatment in a real-world MS cohort. Our findings confirm the sustained effectiveness of DMF on the clinical and radiological activity of multiple sclerosis in a real-world setting, both in naïve patients and in those switching from other multiple sclerosis therapies.

    TI is a topic rarely addressed in MS and this work highlights the importance of therapeutic optimization in these patients. Further studies should be held to explore the factors that influence TI once they have a great impact on therapeutic decisions.

    Retrospective data, Journal:  Radiologically isolated syndrome: A single-center, retrospective cohort study. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 22, 2021   
    We characterize a new cohort of RIS patients, demonstrating time to clinically evident demyelinating disease from RIS diagnosis of approximately 3.4 years. Our data suggest that early use of a DMT in RIS may mitigate the impact of recognized risk factors on the occurrence of clinically evident disease and reduce the likelihood of conversion to clinically definite CNS demyelinating disease in high-risk individuals.

    Review, Journal:  The Role of Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle Metabolites in Viral Infections. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 22, 2021   
    The TCA cycle is at the core of viral infection and replication as well as viral pathogenesis and anti-viral immunity. This review highlights the role of the TCA cycle in viral infections and explores recent advances in the fast-moving field of virometabolism.

    [VIRTUAL] Isolated Cranial Nerve Palsies in Multiple Sclerosis () -  Oct 21, 2021 - Abstract #ANA2021ANA_477;    
    Isolated cranial nerve palsies are rare presentations of MS and even rarer symptoms of relapse as compared to new onset internulcear ophthalmoplegia and optic neuritis which are more common ophthalmic presen tations of MS. Zadro et al.

    Journal:  Low serum neurofilament light chain values identify optimal responders to dimethyl fumarate in multiple sclerosis treatment. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 20, 2021   
    Consequently, low baseline sNfL values (≤ 12 pg/ml) increased the probability of NEDA (OR 5.8; CI 1.82-15.6; p = 0.002, after correcting by disease activity in the previous year), and associated with significant reductions of central memory CD4+ T lymphocytes, interferon-gamma+ CD8+ T lymphocytes, Natural Killer T cells, and memory B cells upon DMF treatment, being the highest differences in memory B cells (p < 0.0001). This shows that low baseline sNfL values identify MS patients with higher probability of optimal response to DMF and of a reduction in effector immune cells.

    Journal:  Expanding the MECP2 network using comparative genomics reveals potential therapeutic targets for Rett syndrome. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 14, 2021   
    The drugs targeting these three proteins (Pacritinib, DMF, and EPO) were able to rescue different phenotypes of MECP2 inactivation in cultured human neural cell types, and appeared to converge on Nuclear Factor Kappa B (NF-κB) signaling in inflammation. This study highlights the potential of comparative genomics to accelerate drug discovery, and yields potential new avenues for the treatment of RTT.
