Researchers identified a protein in mouse models that acts as a brake on myelin production, which could be a target for new MS treatments.

ROCHESTER, Minn. -- Mayo Clinic researchers have found that a human antibody administered in a single low dose in laboratory mouse models can repair myelin, the insulating covering of nerves that when ...

The National Multiple Sclerosis Society (USA) has awarded a grant of 1 million dollars to Dr. Isabel Pérez-Otaño, who leads the Plasticity and Remodeling of Neural Circuits laboratory at the Institute ...

A new study has identified a treatment that could repair myelin in the cortex, undoing some of the damage caused by MS. Treating a mouse model of multiple sclerosis with the pregnancy hormone estriol ...

In multiple sclerosis (MS), macrophages and microglia play a dual role that could be used to treat this neurodegenerative disease. These cells promote inflammation that demyelinates neurons but also ...

A new study out of the United States could shift how multiple sclerosis (MS) is detected and treated. Researchers say they’ve ...

Researchers have discovered a regulatory process that helps control the maturation of brain cells. This regulation seems to be defective in multiple sclerosis, disrupting the ability of cells to ...

In the nearly 1 million Americans living with multiple sclerosis, the fatty substance that insulates the nerves of the central nervous system—called myelin—is damaged. This slows the transmission of ...

Scientists from Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) and the University of Edinburgh have discovered that a little-understood junction that connects neurons to oligodendrocyte precursor cells ...

People with multiple sclerosis (MS) have altered levels of several key bacteria in the mouth, a new study reports.

Most MS specialists focus on managing the symptoms instead of targeting the underlying cause. Jodi Knapp’s book, The Multiple Sclerosis Solution, promises to end your suffering. It reverses the signs ...
