Multiple sclerosis is a disease in which the immune system erroneously attacks a protective insulation that surrounds neurons ...

A newly identified mechanism lends credence to the idea that MS may be treatable by targeting EBV-infected B-cells, a study found.

A brain protein called ANO2 has emerged as a new piece of the puzzle linking Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infections and MS ...

Recent findings suggest that the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is involved in both causing multiple sclerosis (MS) and shaping its ...
