Ep. 111 Multiple Sclerosis Pt 2: Missing Myelin


Listen Later

Last week we started our series on multiple sclerosis by discussing the history of the disease, the symptoms, and the various forms of the disease. This week we dive into the biological cause of the disease. What makes multiple sclerosis pop up? What sorts of genetic or environmental factors seem to play a role?

We also recommend you check out Eps 63/64 on the blood brain barrier, Eps 56/57 on autoimmune disorders, and Ep 38 on the adaptive immune system for more background information!
