Thought this was interesting. Not conclusive of anything yet, but provides yet another rabbit hole in which to search for more clues to the MS mystery. I had heard of Dr Prineus before and his research that showed that it seemed the damage to myelin and all that part of the process happened before the immune system was called to action. I asked my neuro about it then and he said Dr Prineus was a restpected MS pathologist and his work needed to be taken seriously.

Ok. So from the article it seems that before the myelin degenerates, they are finding that the astrocytes- I forgot how to spell it- are dying. So if they can just find out why and how to stop it, then we're all good? Sound wonderful to me. Just hope something pans out soon.
