Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a common herpesvirus that infects most people worldwide, typically establishing a lifelong latent infection in certain immune cells called B lymphocytes. While EBV usually remains dormant and controlled by the immune system, it can reactivate under…
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex neurological disease where the immune system mistakenly attacks the protective covering of nerve fibers in the central nervous system. One of the most intriguing and extensively studied connections in recent years is between MS…
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system, leading to symptoms such as muscle weakness, balance problems, and vision difficulties. Research into the relationship between MS and hormone therapy has been growing, as hormones…
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex neurological condition where the immune system mistakenly attacks the protective covering of nerve fibers in the central nervous system. This leads to communication problems between the brain and the rest of the body, causing…
The evidence for diet interventions in multiple sclerosis (MS) is growing, showing that certain dietary approaches can influence symptoms, quality of life, and some markers of disease activity, although no diet has yet been proven to definitively slow disease progression…
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex neurological disease where the immune system mistakenly attacks the protective covering (myelin) of nerve fibers in the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. This damage disrupts communication between the brain and the rest of…
The latest clinical trials for **progressive multiple sclerosis (MS)** focus on novel therapies targeting neuroinflammation, immune modulation, and neuroprotection, as well as non-pharmacological interventions. Progressive MS, which includes primary progressive MS (PPMS) and secondary progressive MS (SPMS), is characterized by…
B cells play a multifaceted and crucial role in the development and progression of multiple sclerosis (MS), a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system (CNS). Their involvement goes beyond merely producing antibodies; they actively participate in immune…
T cells play a central and complex role in the development and progression of multiple sclerosis (MS), an autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system (CNS). In MS, T cells are part of the immune system’s response gone awry,…
Ocrevus (ocrelizumab) is a highly effective treatment for multiple sclerosis (MS), particularly known for its ability to significantly reduce disease activity and progression. It works primarily by targeting and depleting B-cells, a type of immune cell that plays a crucial…
