Interplaying Factors That Effect Multiple Sclerosis Causation and Sustenance

International Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
The author hypothesized that multiple sclerosis (MS) is a humoral autoimmune disease, caused by faulty interplay between myelin‐specific, dimeric IgE, specifically competing non‐IgE antibodies and IgE‐triggered degranulating mast cells. The principal fault was believed to be insufficient quantity of protective, specific non‐IgE antibodies.
