Research Uncovers Possible Way to Repair Myelin in MS Patients

According to new research published in the journal Cell, targeting the SOX6 protein could open a new way to repair myelin in individuals afflicted by multiple sclerosis. According to the researchers, this SOX6 protein regulates the maturation of cells referred to as oligodendrocytes which manufacture myelin. The team found that when SOX6 is overactive, as is the case in MS patients, oligodendrocytes remain immature and can’t therefore produce myelin. By targeting SOX6, the researchers believe that myelin production can resume and consequently some form of restoration in function could be achieved in patients. In healthy people, SOX6 is less active,…

Many individuals with IBD develop clots in their blood and these can result in strokes and heart attacks. Now a new study has discovered possible reasons why these clots are common and suggests a possible way to address this problem while also reducing inflammation. The team, whose study author is Rebecca Mellema, explains that platelets in IBD patients are hyper-primed to clot at the smallest provocation. This is because the inbuilt…
