Endothelin-1 contributes to the development of virus-induced demyelinating disease
Background Experimental autoimmune encephalitis (EAE) and virally induced demyelinating disease are two major experimental model systems used to study human multiple sclerosis.

Demyelination in rheumatic diseases [PDF]
Abstract Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS) characterised by multifocal areas of demyelination in the white matter of the brain and spinal cord. Autoantibodies, for example antinuclear antibodies, can also be present.

Moyamoya Disease May Mimic Multiple Sclerosis?
Introduction. A wide range of medical conditions may mimic multiple sclerosis. Among them, cerebrovascular diseases, including moyamoya disease, need to be excluded since they share common clinical features and radiographic findings with multiple ...

Hedgehog Signaling in CNS Remyelination
Remyelination is a fundamental repair process in the central nervous system (CNS) that is triggered by demyelinating events. In demyelinating diseases, oligodendrocytes (OLs) are targeted, leading to myelin loss, axonal damage, and severe functional ...

Anaesthesia and demyelinating disease [PDF]
Summary The demyelinating diseases are classified and the current concepts of the aetiology and pathophysiology of the most common of these diseases, multiple sclerosis, are described. The effects of the impaired function, local responses and known complications of the disease on the choice of anaesthetic, drugs and techniques are ...
