If gut bacteria are too similar to the protective layer of nerves, they can misdirect the immune system and cause it to attack its own nervous system. This mechanism can accelerate the progression of ...
What if the enemy attacking the brain is not a virus, a toxin or an external threat—but a look-alike living quietly inside the gut? New research from the University of Basel suggests that certain gut ...

New research reveals that when gut bacteria closely resemble the myelin sheath that protects nerve fibers, the immune system can become confused and attack both — accelerating multiple sclerosis.

Degradation is a therapeutic strategy that could offer possibilities to get at currently undruggable target proteins. In targeted degradation, compounds induce interactions between a target protein ...
Antibodies that target proteins from the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) also can inadvertently attack proteins in the brain, which may help to explain the link between EBV and multiple sclerosis (MS), a new ...
Summary: New research highlights a critical link between antibodies produced against Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and the development of multiple sclerosis (MS). Scientists discovered that these viral ...
The following is a summary of “Molecular mimicry-driven autoimmunity in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps,” published in the February 2025 issue of Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology by ...
