Blood Signals May Predict Multiple Sclerosis 7 Years Before Symptoms
Scientists have found blood protein signals that may flag multiple sclerosis up to seven years before symptoms begin. Spotting early warning signs means more opportunities to treat or prevent multiple sclerosis (MS) – and more insight into how it develops. The chronic, incurable autoimmune disease – where the immune system attacks the brain and spinal cord – can cause a range of debilitating health issues – including problems with memory, mobili…
Scientists have identified protein signals in the blood that can report multiple sclerosis up to seven years before the first clinical manifestations. Identifying these warning signs opens up major perspectives: more opportunities to treat or prevent the disease, and a thorough understanding of its development mechanisms. Multiple sclerosis ...

This blood test could help stop multiple sclerosis before it starts
By the time most people go to the doctor with symptoms of multiple sclerosis (MS), their brain has already been under attack for years. Until now, scientists didn’t fully understand when the damage started or which brain cells were affected first. But a new study from researchers at UC San Francisco has changed that. They […] The post This blood test could help stop multiple sclerosis before it starts appeared first on Knowridge Science Report.
Identification of these early warning signs means more treatment or even prevention of multiple sclerosis (SM), a chronic and incurable disease in which the immune system attacks brain and spinal cord, causing memory problems, mobility, vision and pain. Researchers at the University of California in San Francisco have analyzed the blood samples of American military personnel, of which 134 people have developed further SM. They have been studied …
