Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neuro-inflammatory disease resulting in disability. Given this, many treatments for it naturally target or harness the immune system. Recent studies have explored the role of immune cells at different stages of MS and how they interact with cells of the central nervous system (CNS). The goal of this Special Issue is to generate genuine and valuable scientific knowledge on the role of the immune system in the pathogenesis and progression of MS. We welcome original research and review articles in this field. Authors are invited to present cutting-edge research that addresses a wide range of topics related to multiple sclerosis. Given that different neuroinflammatory diseases might have similar or contrasting immune system involvement and/or immunotherapy, we request articles addressing these topics, e.g., neuro-sarcoidosis, neuro-Behcet, neuro-lupus, etc.
