European Journal of Neurology, Volume 32, Issue 11, November 2025.The review analyzed 87 studies from 20 countries on environmental risk factors for MS. EBV infection increased MS risk, while breastfeeding showed limited protection. Adverse social experiences, active smoking, and obesity in childhood/adolescence raised risk, whereas normal BMI was protective.

Immunology, Volume 176, Issue 3, Page 363-372, November 2025.The membrane attack complex (MAC) is formed by the stepwise assembly of five proteins: C5b, C6, C7, C8 and C9. MAC plays a key role in driving inflammation in numerous diseases. This study compares the inhibitory mechanisms of MAC assembly by soluble CD59 (sCD59), a disulphide‐locked C9 mutant (C9lock) and horse C9 (HoC9).
