Combining current drugs with strategies to
protect oligodendrocytes, enhance myelin - making and possibly wrangle the immune system through the gut might be the best strategy for achieving prolonged benefit for people with MS.

Hypertension drug that
protects cell from endoplasmic reticulum stress and preserves
oligodendrocytes and myelin during inflammation
The study introduced here focused on a population of support cells in the spinal cord that helps to
protect surviving nerve cells (neurons) after injury:
oligodendrocytes and their precursor cells.
Most of these trials involve stem cell - derived neural progenitor cells, which can turn into several different types of brain or spinal cord cells, or
oligodendrocyte progenitor cells, which create the myelin sheaths that insulate and
protect nerve cells.
