Abnormal B-Cell Exosome Proapoptotic and Antiapoptotic Cargo in Multiple Sclerosis: Potential Implication in Progressive Disease Biology.
Article in Neurology(R) neuroimmunology & neuroinflammation, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesCompartmentalized CNS inflammation involving B cells is implicated in gray matter injury and disease progression in multiple sclerosis (MS). Products secreted by B cells of patients with MS can kill oligodendrocytes and neurons, a cytotoxicity conferred by their exosome-enriched extracellular vesicle (Ex En) fraction.
methodsTo explore the potential molecular mediators of this cytotoxicity, we profiled proteomic and transcriptomic cargo of Ex En isolated from B cells of patients with treatment-naive MS and matched healthy controls.
resultsMS B-cell-derived Ex En appeared enriched in cell-death-associated proteins (including fibrinogen, complement C9, APP, and SPARC) and deficient in cell-survival-associated proteins (such as galectin-3). Abnormal enrichment for cell-death proteins was supported by gene set enrichment analysis. Protein pathway analysis revealed densely connected prodeath modules in the MS B-cell-derived Ex En, contrasting with homeostatic signatures in controls. Transcriptomic analysis further revealed that Ex En of MS B cells appeared to carry reduced levels of miRNAs (miR-182, miR-212, and miR-1270) known to inhibit apoptosis. DISCUSSION: Our findings indicate that B-cell-derived Ex En of patients with MS, previously shown to impair neuronal and glial survival, harbor an abnormal cytotoxic molecular profile that may contribute to CNS-compartmentalized injury and progressive MS biology.
