Multiple sclerosis, the prototype of demyelinating disease in man, is a relapsing-remitting or progressively disabling disease of unknown cause. The first pathological descriptions of the disease ...

varicella zoster virus among others), and demyelinating disorders (e.g., MS and acute demyelinating encephalomyelitits). More commonly, however, the term optic neuritis is used as a synonym for ...

If you have MS, your immune system attacks the myelin sheath that insulates your neurons. This is called demyelination. Demyelination makes it more difficult for electrical signals to travel ...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease caused by activated autoimmune T lymphocytes in patients resulting in inflammatory demyelination in the central nervous system.

Damage to myelin, the protective sheath surrounding nerve fibers, impairs the brain's ability to transmit signals efficiently ...

Acute demyelinating optic neuritis (referred to herein as optic neuritis) is one of the most common manifestations of MS and often occurs as a first demyelinating event. Patients present with loss ...

Demyelination in MS occurs when the immune system attacks and damages the myelin sheaths that insulate and nourish axons and nerve fibres in the central nervous system, leading to multifocal ...

Demyelination in MS occurs when the immune system attacks and damages the myelin sheaths that insulate and nourish axons and nerve fibres in the central nervous system, leading to multifocal ...

MS causes the immune system to mistake the myelin for a foreign body and attacks it, stripping away the layers of insulation. This process, known as demyelination, leaves neurons exposed ...

Demyelination in MS occurs when the immune system attacks and damages the myelin sheaths that insulate and nourish axons and nerve fibers in the central nervous system, leading to multifocal ...

MS is a chronic disease caused by demyelination, often associated with a wide range of neurological symptoms, which despite the ability of existing drugs to control the inflammatory component of ...
