In degenerative disorders of the central nervous system (CNS), transplantation of neural
multipotent (stem) precursor cells (NPCs) is aimed at replacing damaged neural cells 1 , 2 . …

We report the results of a meta-analysis of genome-wide association scans for multiple
sclerosis (MS) susceptibility that includes 2,624 subjects with MS and 7,220 control subjects. …

The mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of epilepsy, a chronic neurological disorder
that affects approximately one percent of the world population, are not well understood 1 , 2 , …

Neural stem cells (NSCs) have garnered significant scientific and commercial interest in the
last 15 years. Given their plasticity, defined as the ability to develop into different phenotypes …

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory neurodegenerative disease of the central
nervous system (CNS) with heterogeneous pathophysiology. In its progressive course …

Background Intravenous amiodarone is an important treatment for arrhythmias, but peripheral
infusion is associated with direct irritation of vessel walls and phlebitis rates of 8% to 55%. …

The multiple sclerosis (MS) patient population is highly heterogeneous in terms of disease
course and treatment response. We used a transcriptional profile generated from peripheral …

In our functional dissection of the CD33 Alzheimer's disease susceptibility locus, we found
that the rs3865444 C risk allele was associated with greater cell surface expression of CD33 …

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system associated
with demyelination and axonal loss. A whole genome association scan suggested that …

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is considered an autoimmune inflammatory disease of the central
nervous system. Under physiologic conditions, we compared the adhesiveness of CD4 + and …
