Identification of Inflammatory Neuronal Injury and Prevention of Neuronal Damage in Multiple Sclerosis: Hope for Novel Therapies?

Abstract Full Text
JAMA Neurol. 2013;70(12):1569-1574. doi:10.1001/jamaneurol.2013.4391

Zipp and coauthors noted that although multiple sclerosis (MS) has long been considered a primarily inflammatory, demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, modern histopathology and imaging techniques show that neurodegenerative processes also have a definitive role in MS pathology. They reviewed reports from the last decade and outlined clinical results on the topic.
