Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an immune-mediated neurodegenerative
disorder of the human central nervous system (CNS) which usually
affects young adults with certain genetic backgrounds who are then
exposed to certain precipitating environmental antigen(s). Despite
major advances of the past two decades in understanding the
pathophysiology of MS, and in spite of the introduction of new
immunomodulatory and immuno-suppressive agents which may slow down
disease progression and delay the onset of disability, the "cause"
and the "cure" for MS remain elusive. This volume of International
Review of Neurobiology focuses on MS and related disorders. The
volume can be divided into various sections with the main emphasis
on MS pathogenesis, clinical features and epidemiology,
neuroimaging, and treatment. The ultimate goal of this book is to
encourage further research into the pathogenesis of this elusive
disease.
