Neurological diseases, both degenerative and relapsing, have complex mechanisms influencing their progression. Understanding these mechanisms, including genetic factors, is crucial for predicting disease evolution and developing targeted therapies.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Neuroscience
  • Pathophysiology

Background:

  • Neurological diseases present as either progressive or relapsing-remitting, impacting affected systems.
  • Clinical evaluation and in vivo neuroimaging allow for the study of disease-specific pathology and underlying mechanisms.
  • Frequent relapsing neurological diseases include multiple sclerosis, brain infarction, and epilepsy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the mechanisms of neurological disease manifestation.
  • To discuss recent research on aetiopathogenesis and pathophysiology for therapeutic interventions and relapse prevention.
  • To highlight the challenges in predicting disease progression due to ill-defined genetic marker relations.

Main Methods:

  • Clinical evaluation of affected neurological systems.

  • In vivo neuroimaging for disease-specific pathology assessment.
  • Analysis of molecular genetic markers in relation to disease evolution.
  • Main Results:

    • Disease manifestation is determined by aetiopathogenesis, lesion-specific pathophysiology, and unspecific bystanders.
    • Prediction of neurological disease progression or relapse remains poor.
    • The relationship between molecular genetic markers and disease evolution is not well-defined.

    Conclusions:

    • Further research into aetiopathogenesis and pathophysiology is needed.
    • New perspectives offer potential for selective therapeutic interventions.
    • Relapse prevention strategies may be improved by a better understanding of disease mechanisms.
