Clinical Relevance: From Autoimmunity to Oncology In autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease, CCR1 signaling sustains leukocyte infiltration into tissues. Elevated CCR1 expression correlates with disease severity, suggesting it could serve as both biomarker and ...
It’s about regaining your freedom when you’re using a smartphone, tablet or computer. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS): ALS affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord which causes loss of muscle control. Over time, muscles in the body becomes weaker, and problems with strength in the arms and legs arises while difficulty in in speaking and swallowing occur. ...
In the central nervous system, myelin is generated by oligodendrocytes, which are differentiated from oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPC). In some demyelinating diseases, such as multiple sclerosis and white matter lesions, there are many OPCs in the lesion, but they cannot differentiate into mature oligodendrocytes, and our understanding of OPC differentiation ...
Lymphocyte-activation gene 3 (LAG-3), also known as CD233, is a type I transmembrane protein expressed mainly in activated T cells, NK cells, B cells, and plasma cell-like DCs. Oncology and autoimmune diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis) are currently among the clinical pipeline indications for LAG-3 which acts as an immunomodulator in a variety of ...
Our Phase 2 trial is investigating the treatment of a disease called cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM), a devastating neurovascular disease. ...
PANDAS has been expanded to involve other diseases (Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Burkholderia spongiformis, Borna disease virus, and toxoplasmosis gondii) in recent years, and the name pediatric acute onset childhood neuropsychiatric syndrome (PANS) has been coined. PANDAS autoantibody The positive rates of three autoantibodies, α-dopamine receptor D1 (a-D1R), ...
If you feel numb fingers chronically (night after night) then it might be a sign of disease or trauma. But it can also be a sign that you're sleeping in a bad position. ...
Importance of posturography Several conditions like stroke, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, vestibular dysfunctions, knee and foot lesions, traumatic brain injury, among many others will affect balance. ...

The use of Vibramoov gives hope and different management possibilities for patients with neurodegenerative diseases (Multiple Sclerosis, even Charcot …), but also for children. ...
An unmet need for disease-modifying therapy persists for patients with Systemic Sclerosis SSc is an autoimmune disease characterised by widespread vascular injury, progressive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs, and a specific pattern of autoantibodies. The clinical manifestations of SSc are highly heterogenous with significant ...
Some of the most commonly contributed factors include: Nerve Damage When signals are sent to the brain and the bladder, the body tries to empty the bladder at the wrong time. There are several diseases, as well as types of trauma, that can cause this to happen. Some of the most commonly found causes of nerve damage that cause overactive bladder include: Back surgery ...
What is autoimmune disease? Autoimmune disease a condition in which the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks the body itself. Thus far, more than 80 different autoimmune diseases have been identified, with some of the most prevalent including rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease, type 1 diabetes, and multiple ...
