There may be two distinct subtypes of multiple sclerosis, according to a new study led by scientists at University College ...

Stem cells injected into the spinal fluid of people with multiple sclerosis show promise as a treatment for the disease, a small trial suggests 1. The immune system of people with the condition ...

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 ...

Scientists have identified an unusual type of brain cell that may play a vital role in progressive multiple sclerosis (MS), likely contributing to the persistent inflammation characteristic of the ...

Researchers identify enzymes ceramide synthase 5 and 6 as key players in how saturated fats worsen multiple sclerosis symptoms. Study: Neuroprotective effect of neuron-specific deletion of the C16 ...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune condition in which the protective insulation surrounding neurons in the brain and spinal cord is erroneously attacked. This can cause a wide variety of serious ...

New research has identified crucial links between dietary choices and the progression of multiple sclerosis (MS). The study explored how enzymes called ceramide synthase 5 and 6 are responsible for ...

Our movements are controlled by multiple neural pathways that connect the brain and spinal cord. In particular, neurons in the cerebral cortex send commands to the motor neurons in the spinal cord and ...
