Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a progressive neurological disease of the central nervous system (CNS) and its pathogenesis has been associated with auto-immune mechanisms underlying the inflammatory demyelination of neurons. Myelin is the sheathed coating of neurons which provides multifaceted functions like neuroprotection and enhances synaptic transmission throughout brain regions. Therefore, the pathological demyelination of neurons results in distorted, slow or even the absence of neuronal communication. This consequently leads to the onset of many symptoms that characterise MS. Symptoms include...
