Role of gender in multiple sclerosis: clinical effects and potential molecular mechanisms.

Journal of neuroimmunology - 1 May 2011

Greer Judith M, McCombe Pamela A

Abstract excerpt

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is more prevalent in females than males, and this female predominance is increasing as time goes by. Additionally, gender appears to play critical roles in development, progression and treatment of MS, and is therefore an aspect that should always be considered in the design and interpretation of research and clinical trials for MS. In this review, factors that could potentially explain...
