A test measuring proteins in spinal fluid may help support the diagnosis of MS, especially in patients whose disease is harder to diagnose.

Researchers from the MPI of Biochemistry and the Technical University of Munich have discovered new diagnostic markers for multiple sclerosis (MS), a disease that affects 3 million people worldwide.

Researchers have identified a set of 22 proteins that distinguish multiple sclerosis from other inflammatory diseases.

Yawning can impact the flow of cerebrospinal fluid and venous blood flow, suggesting a regulation of neurofluids and increase in carotid arterial blood flow.

“Latent herpes viruses have the potential to reactivate in people living with HIV which can lead to neuroinflammation and impact long-term brain health,” said Shirin Mazumder, MD, infectious diseases ...

Exercising and maintaining a healthy lifestyle are some of the ways in which we can keep our blood vessels flexible, enabling them to retain the ability to pump blood around the body. This is not only ...

In addition to brain imaging, laboratory analysis of cerebrospinal fluid is important for the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS). In this study, proteomic analysis of this fluid has revealed a set ...
