Vaccination against COVID-19 is crucial for individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS), ensuring safety and effectiveness despite immunosuppressive therapies.

Researchers at Cambridge led a study showing that neural stem cell grafts may support myelin repair in the central nervous system. The results suggest that stem cell-based approaches could be a ...

Rats exhibit significant recovery of locomotor function following incomplete spinal cord injuries, albeit with altered gait expression and reduced speed and stepping frequency. These changes likely ...

A new study reveals that neural stem cell grafts can generate new myelin in the central nervous system, offering hope for ...

A study by Cambridge researchers has shed light on how neural stem cell grafts could help restore myelin in the central nervous system. The findings suggest that neural stem cell-based therapies hold ...

Multiple sclerosis is a progressive condition where the brain and the spinal cord get affected due to damage to the myelin sheath. This further causes a lot of neurological symptoms, such as ...

In many if not most cases, neurologists can diagnose multiple sclerosis (MS) on the basis of symptoms, along with an MRI scan of the brain and spinal cord. But when results aren’t conclusive ...

Tolebrutinib appears to work by reducing inflammation in the brain and spinal cord, Fox said. "The drug offers the potential for a new class of medications for the treatment of MS, the leading ...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is characterized by lesions in the central nervous system, including the spinal cord. Spinal lesions may indicate MS. Learn more.

(D) Late PET sagittal images showing increased PET signal in cord around injury and quantification of 75–106-min SUV at selected spinal segments. For both early and late PET, axial images at T8 ...

In a new study, the extent of microstructural damage in patients with early relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) was associated with worse disability and spinal cord atrophy at 5 years ...

WebMD explains how a spinal tap, also called a lumbar puncture, is used to diagnose disorders of the brain and spinal cord, including multiple sclerosis (MS).
