Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disorder that prompts the body's immune system to attack myelin, the protective sheath covering nerve cells in the brain, optic nerve and spinal cord. This can in turn ...

A recent study has discovered that B cells mediate spontaneous T cell proliferation through the HLA-DR15 haplotype, and this interaction between T cells and B cells may serve as a key factor in ...

A team of researchers the University of Zurich and the University Hospital Zurich has shown that in multiple sclerosis, it is not only specific T cells that cause inflammation and lesions in the brain ...

New research published in the Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology has identified three genes and their expressed proteins that may be involved in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis.

New research shows some gut bacteria mimic myelin, tricking immunity to attack nerves and worsen MS. Non-inflammatory ...

Researchers determined that patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) present with significant Aqueduct of Sylvius enlargement over time, which may be attributable to regional atrophy changes and ex vacuo ...

In multiple sclerosis, a defective response of the body's own immune system leads to brain tissue damage. Gastrointestinal microbiota could play a far greater role in the pathogenesis of the disease ...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a potentially debilitating disease in which the immune system attacks the insulating layer surrounding the nerve fibers, causing communication breakdowns between the brain ...
