A new study reports dTMS can help to reduce fatigue symptoms in those with multiple sclerosis. Read More
Researchers report they have successfully developed 'mini-brains' made up of the many neurons and cells in the human brain. The mini brains could allow for better research and reduce the need for animal testing. Read More
An experimental treatment can generate immune cells that migrate to the brain and prevent attacks against myelin, allowing mice the ability to regain walking skills. Read More
Using a mathematical model based on experimental data from multiple sclerosis patients, researchers performed computer simulations of the different known biological processes associated with the disease. They discovered the symptoms and disease course are produced by the same underlying mechanism that damages the nerve cells over time. Read More
According to a new study, people with multiple sclerosis exhibit weaker connections between the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and posterior brain regions. Read More
Controlled trial shows improved spasticity, reduced pain after smoking medical marijuana. A clinical study of 30 adult patients with multiple... Read More
Researchers discover an anti-convulsant drug usually prescribed for people with epilepsy can protect neural tissue in people with optic neuritis, a symptom of MS. Read More
eEF1a1 activated by acetylation prevents remyelination, but if the protein is deactivated by deacetylation, myelin sheaths can be rebuilt. The findings shed light on the process of remyelination and could provide avenues of treatment for multiple sclerosis, and other conditions associated with demyelination. Read More
Researchers report environmental conditions may trigger structural changes to myelin sheaths, forcing the onset of multiple sclerosis. Read More
According to a new study, researchers have implicated a central regulator as a cause of MS and ulcerative colitis. Read More
New findings could help point the way to new targets for developing treatments for multiple sclerosis. Read More
Researchers release findings after using fNIRS to examine brain activation during a working memory task. Read More
