Imbalance in immune responses plays an indispensable role pathogenesis and development of multiple sclerosis (MS), as a neurodegenerative disorder. Current treatments are not always successful preventing MS treating the disease. Stem cell-based cell therapy has provided new window for disorders. cells can regulate system improve axonal remyelination. They be isolated from different origins such...

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease in CNS. One of prevalent symptoms in MS is memory disorders. Main hippocampus function in brain are memory. Nowadays tendency of herbal therapy is increase because of drug's side effects. This study's purpose is review of synergistic effects of mixture extract Portulaca olerace, Urtica dioica, Boswellia serrate on multiple sclerosis in rats. Th...

BACKGROUND & AIMS Psychiatric factors may determine gastrointestinal health outcomes. Here, we used a model of depression based on neonatal maternal separation (MS) to identify alterations in gut physiology and to assess its association with increased sensitivity to experimental colitis in adulthood. We also examined whether antidepressant therapy attenuates the increased susceptibility to coli...

Azathioprine is the main thiopurine drug used in the treatment of immune-based inflammations of gastrointestinal tract. For the purpose of therapy control and optimization, effective and reliable analytical methods for a rapid drug monitoring in biological fluids are essential. Here, we developed a separation method based on the capillary electrophoresis (CE) hyphenated with tandem mass spectro...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. Natalizumab, a humanized anti-α4 integrin monoclonal antibody, is a highly effective treatment approved for MS. An association between MS and an exposure to Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) sustained by the levels of antiviral capsid antigen (VCA) and anti-Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen-1 (EBNA-1) IgG has ...

Background As patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) require lifelong treatment, optimization of therapy with respect to efficacy and safety is needed to limit long-term disease progression. Patients with MS also need a range of health-related services. Satisfaction with these as well as treatment is clinically relevant because satisfied patients are more likely to adhere to therapy. The aim of ...

BACKGROUND Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological disease with a variety of signs and symptoms. Exercise therapy has been shown to improve physical functions in MS. However, questions about an optimal exercise therapy remain. In this regard, we suggest a combined exercise therapy including aerobic and resistance exercises for MS patients. The study is designed to observe, test and compare th...

BACKGROUND Interferon beta is 1 of 2 first-line treatments for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS). However, not all patients respond to interferon beta therapy, and to date there is a lack of surrogate markers that reliably correlate with responsiveness to interferon beta therapy in MS. OBJECTIVE To identify allelic variants that influence response to interferon beta therapy in patie...

BACKGROUND The goal of this research was to compare the demographics, clinical characteristics and treatment patterns for newly diagnosed multiple sclerosis (MS) patients in a commercial managed care population who received disease-modifying drug (DMD) therapy versus those not receiving DMD therapy. METHODS A retrospective cohort study using US administrative healthcare claims identified indi...
