Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a common neurological disability of the central nervous system. Immune-modulatory therapy with interferon-β (IFN-β) has been used as a first-line treatment to prevent relapses in MS patients. While the therapeutic mechanism of IFN-β has not been fully elucidated, the data of microarray experiments that collected longitudinal gene expression profiles to evaluate the long-term response of IFN-β treatment have been analyzed using statistical methods that were incapable of dealing with such data. In this study, the GeneRank method was applied to generate weighted gene expression values and the monotonically expressed genes (MEGs) for both IFN-β treatment responders and nonresponders were identified. The proposed procedure identified 13 MEGs for the responders and 2 MEGs for the nonresponders, most of which are biologically relevant to MS. Our work here provides some useful insight into the mechanism of IFN-β treatment for MS patients. A full understanding of the therapeutic mechanism will enable a more personalized treatment strategy possible.
