Multiple Sclerosis
Researchers at the University of California, Riverside, have identified how inflammation in multiple sclerosis disrupts mitochondrial function in the brain, leading to the loss of key neurons that control balance and coordination. Published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the findings highlight a potential pathway for new treatments to preserve mobility in the 2.3 million people affected by the disease worldwide. The study examined human brain tissue and a mouse model to trace these energy failures over time.
