abstract = {Understanding inflammatory mechanisms in vascular dementia
(VD) is pivotal for achieving better insights into changes
in brain metabolism. We performed cytokine profiling and
measured levels of the cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) in
serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from patients
with VD and with vascular encephalopathy (VE). Significant
changes were observed for interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-4, IL-5,
tumor necrosis factor alpha, interferon gamma,
granulocyte-colony stimulating factor, monocyte chemotactic
protein 1, and macrophage inflammatory protein 1 beta in
serum and for IL-6 and granulocyte macrophage
colony-stimulating factor in CSF of VD and VE patients,
suggesting that most of immune markers depend on vascular
lesions, while only IL-6 was related to dementia. In VD
patients, the severity of dementia as defined by the
Mini-Mental Status Test or Cambridge Cognitive Examination
battery test was significantly correlated with the levels of
IL-8 (CSF) and macrophage inflammatory protein 1 beta (serum
and CSF). Additionally, in CSF of VD patients, our data
revealed a correlation between immune and neurodegenerative
marker proteins. Both indicate an association of
neuroinflammation and cognitive decline. Levels of PrP(C)
were regulated differentially in VD and VE patients compared
with Alzheimer's disease patients and controls. Moreover, we
observed a significant negative correlation between cytokine
levels and PrP(C) in VD patients in CSF and serum, as well
as a correlation between PrP(C) expression with levels of
neurodegenerative marker proteins in CSF (in VD and VE
patients). Our data suggest that immunological modifiers
play a role in VD and VE patients and provide evidence for
an association of PrP(C) with immune and neurodegenerative
markers.},
