    Abstract Reversible blockade of sodium channels by endogenous substances has been claimed to account for the fast exacerbations and relapses commonly seen in demyelinating autoimmune diseases. Evidence has been provided that in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with multiple sclerosis or Guillain-Barré syndrome, a sodium-channel-blocking factor exists that has properties of local anesthetic agents. This factor could contribute to the nerve conduction block and paresis seen in these disorders. We describe here a previously unknown endogenous substance in human cerebrospinal fluid with distinct channel-blocking properties even at very low (0.00001 M) concentrations. The pentapeptide with the sequence Gln-Tyr-Asn-Ala-Asp exerted its blocking action by shifting the steady-state inactivation curve of the sodium channels to more-negative potentials, as most local anesthetics do. In the cerebrospinal fluid of healthy individuals, its concentration was about 3 microM, whereas in patients with multiple sclerosis and Guillain-Barré syndrome, it increased 300-1,400%. At these concentrations, the peptide's blocking efficacy was higher than that of 50 microM lidocaine. At a concentration of 10 microM, lidocaine is able to 'unmask' subclinical lesions in multiple sclerosis; thus, the endogenous pentapeptide may well contribute to the fast changes of symptoms. Furthermore, it may become valuable as a marker of disease activity.

    Abstract The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with multiple sclerosis or Guillain-Barré syndrome contains a factor that inhibits excitation of nerve and muscle cells like local anesthetics. CSF samples containing the endogenous local anesthetic-like factor (ELLF) were analyzed by gel filtration chromatography and ultraviolet (UV) absorption at 210 nm. The active component was in a single peak corresponding to a molecular weight of 600-800 Da. This peak was decreased and the Na+ channel blocking activity was neutralized by the addition of 40 g/l human serum albumin to the CSF. When the albumin was separated from the CSF/albumin mixture by acetonitrile treatment, the Na+ channel blocking activity reappeared. The ELLF and its neutralization may be of relevance for the clinical fluctuations known with these diseases.

    Abstract The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with demyelinating neurological disease, such as Guillain-Barré syndrome or multiple sclerosis, contains factors that inhibit the excitatory Na+ current. Such antiexcitatory factors are occasionally also detectable in CSF from patients with other neurological diseases but were absent from an artificial CSF containing all major CSF constituents (electrolytes, amino acids, vitamins, metabolites, albumin). In an attempt to characterize these factors, unphysiological pCa or pH values were excluded by the application of the Ca2+ chelator EGTA and the use of buffers. Heating the CSF for 10 min to 95 degrees C or digesting it with proteases did not destroy the antiexcitatory potency. Fractionation of the CSF contents according to molecular weight showed that the factors have a molecular weight < 3 kD. This excludes proteins, such as antibodies or cytokines, as candidates. Small peptides are known to be resistant to some proteases and heating.

    Abstract Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) derived from six patients with polyradiculoneuritis (Guillain-Barré syndrome, GBS) treated by liquorpheresis was injected into rat sciatic nerve. By measuring spinal evoked potentials after stimulation of the tibial nerve, we observed slowing or dispersion of nerve conduction in those cases where the CSF had been taken before liquorpheresis. CSF of the same patient, sampled after liquorpheresis, showed minor effects only. Impairment of nerve conduction was seen between 5 and 20 min after injection, normal function being restored on the third day. These results suggest that liquorpheresis eliminates blocking factors from the CSF of patients with GBS. We postulate this as the effect by which liquorpheresis improves neurological symptoms in Guillain-Barré syndrome.

    Abstract The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) contains a low molecular weight factor with sodium channel blocking activity. This study investigated whether such activity also exists in the CSF of patients with other neurological diseases. Further, using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) we tested whether the electrophysiological effect of the CSF is correlated with the size of the corresponding peak in the chromatograms. The existence of sodium channel blocking activity was tested in 27 native CSF samples of three groups of patients (group 1: GBS, n = 13; group 2: other inflammatory diseases, n = 8; group 3: controls, n = 6). NH15-CA2 neuroblastoma x glioma cells in the whole-cell recording configuration was used as a system for assaying the sodium channel blocking activity of CSF specimens. CSF shifted the steady-state inactivation curve of the sodium channels reversibly by -10.2 +/- 4.4 mV in group 1, -6.7 +/- 3.9 mV in group 2, and - 3.5 +/- 2.8 mV in group 3 (P < 0.01). The shift was greater in demyelinating (9.3 +/- 4.7 mV) than in nondemyelinating (5.6 +/- 3.9 mV) diseases (P < 0.04). HPLC analysis of CSFs showed a well separated peak containing the substance responsible for the electrophysiological effect at about 41 min elution time. The peak covered the molecular weight range of 600-800 Da. Sodium channel blocking activity of CSFs and areas of the corresponding peak in the chromatograms were well correlated. We conclude that sodium current inhibition by a low molecular weight factor is generally present but increased in GBS.
