BUFFALO, N.Y. – In recent years, researchers studying multiple sclerosis have concluded that white matter lesion volume in the brain, long considered the best way to monitor MS disease progression, ...
Multiple sclerosis, or MS, is a chronic neurological disease that impacts the brain, spinal cord, and central nervous system. Your brain uses electrical signals to communicate with your body.
The authors of the study speculated that USTE might not have crossed the BBB at sufficient concentrations to antagonize IL-12 and -23 in MS brain lesions, that it might take effect only at the ...
The name multiple sclerosis refers to scars (scleroses—better known as plaques or lesions) particularly in the white matter of the brain and spinal cord, which is mainly composed of myelin.
Multiple sclerosis affects the entire central nervous system, including the brain and the spinal cord. And as a consequence of that, the information being provided to the processing components of ...
Conventional scans clearly show lesions - areas of damage - in the brain of MS patients. But this advanced scan, showing axonal density, can help explain how the lesions affect motor and cognitive ...
Their study had 18 controls and 31 participants with brain lesions, grouped by the affected regions of their frontal cortex. The lesion groups included people with damage to the ventromedial ...
