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

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

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.

“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 ...

Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), also known as Colony Stimulating Factor 2 (granulocyte-macrophage), is a cytokine originally identified for its role in promoting the ...

More than any other biofluid, the cerebrospinal fluid is in intimate contact with the brain. What can the thousands of proteins churning within this brain bath tell us about how Alzheimer’s develops, ...

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 ...
