Longitudinal analysis of peripheral immune cells in patients with multiple sclerosis treated with anti‐CD20 therapy by Mie Waede, Lasse F. Voss, Christina Kingo, Jesper B. Moeller, Maria L. Elkjaer, Zsolt Illes

“…Results B cells were depleted from the periphery after anti‐CD20 treatment as expected, and we observed an isolated acute, transitory drop in the proportion of natural killer (NK) and NKT cells among the main populations of PBMC (P = 0.03, P = 0.004). Major affected PBMC subpopulations were cytotoxic immune cells (NK, NKT, and CD8+ T cells), and we observed a higher proportion of cytotoxic cells with reduced brain‐homing ability and a higher regulatory function as a long‐term anti‐CD20‐related effect. …”
