Aluminum in the Brain in Multiple Sclerosis: Regulatory and Funding Agencies Silent, Complicit
MEDICAL SCIENCE proceeds along a hierarchy of evidence;
often, patients are studied individually (case studies), or a small
collection of patients are examined and characterized together (case
series studies). Case series studies typically have smallish sample
sizes and it is generally understood that larger studies will be
necessary to determine more accurately the characteristics being
studied.
In a new case series study, brain tissue from 14 donors with a diagnosis
of MS was studied in a case series by Mold et al (2018) using
transversely heated graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry. The
study found high aluminum content (>10 ug/g dry weight) in all areas
of the brain studied, with some areas exceeding 50 ug/g. They found
aluminum both with cells and in the interstitium between cells. They
found aluminum co-localised with structures known to be present in
Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (SPMS) in the frontal cortex of
one donor with SPMS.
