Immune Molecule Decreases Severity Of Multiple Sclerosis-Like Disease In Mice
December 30, 2008 — Scientists have explored the expression of an immune molecule (CXCL1) that interacts with myelin-producing cells, finding that CXCL1 decreases the severity of disease in a mouse model of multiple ... > full story -
Nerve Cell Defect Contributes to Multiple Sclerosis
December 22, 2008 — Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease of the brain and spinal cord that progresses overtime, with increasing disability. It occurs when the immune system inappropriately attacks both the ... > full story -
Popular Hypothesis Concerning Emergence Of Multiple Sclerosis Contested
