2. New Clue on Multiple Sclerosis (MS) in African-Americans and Whites
   The study, published in the latest edition of the journal Neurology, points out that multiple sclerosis (MS) is rarer but often more severe in African-Americans than in whites.

3. ScienceDaily: Family Members With Multiple Sclerosis Likely To Share Onset Age, But Not Disease Severity
   When more than one member of a family is affected by multiple sclerosis (MS), their ages at disease onset are likely to be similar, but disease severity may not be.

5. Molecule Linked to Autoimmune Disease Relapses Identified at Stanford
   The study, to be published in the Dec. 3 advance online edition of Nature Immunology, lays the groundwork for a way to determine when a relapse is about to occur, and could eventually lead to a treatment to prevent relapses.

6. Study confirms increased MS rates
   The study found Morrison in particular had 21 confirmed cases of MS - all of them women - which represents about 218 cases for every 100,000 people. That's about 2 1/2 times the average diagnosis rate

7. Cause of nerve fiber damage in multiple sclerosis identified
   The study reveals how immune system B-cells damage axons during MS attacks by inhibiting energy production in these nerve fiber cells, ultimately causing them to degenerate and die.

9. Multiple Sclerosis in genetically susceptible twins is augmented by the northern environment
   A new study of twins suggests that living farther north of the equator significantly increases risk of developing Multiple Sclerosis (MS) among those with genetic susceptibility due to some environmental factor.

10. IL-23 is increased in dendritic cells in multiple sclerosis and down-regulation of IL-23 by antisense oligos increases dendritic cell IL-10 production.
    Our results demonstrate that an abnormal Th1 bias in DCs from MS patients related to IL-23 exists, and that antisense oligonucleotides specific to IL-23 can be used for immune modulation by targeting DC gene expression

12. National MS Society | Successful Initiative on Gender Differences in MS
    The initiative on Gender Differences in MS was launched in 1998 to increase research attention on the question of why more women than men have multiple sclerosis, why it seems to affect women differently than men and what the biological differences betwee

13. Newswise | Men with Multiple Sclerosis Pass Disease to Offspring More Often than Women

14. Increased frequency and broadened specificity of latent EBV nuclear antigen-1-specific T cells in multiple sclerosis -- Lünemann et al. 129 (6): 1493 -- Brain
    Epidemiological studies consistently demonstrate that patients with multiple sclerosis are almost universally infected with Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) and that the risk of developing the disease increases with the level of EBV-specific antibody titers

    Thus the concept of "viral déjà vu" demonstrates how 2 related but independently encountered viral infections can cause organ-specific immune disease without molecular mimicry of self and without breaking self tolerance
