Communication between brain neurohormone and endocrine hormone production is central to neuroendocrine integration. Neuroendocrine hormones influence multiple metabolic functions as well as mood, sleep, memory, neurogenesis, and neuronal myelination. read more »
Immunomodulation is the process of regulating the immune system to ensure it responds adaptively. Normally, the immune system self-regulates through mechanisms of physiological homeostasis. However, in several health conditions, including cancer and auto-immune disorders, the self-regulatory mechanism is unable to function optimally. read more »
Accumulating evidence from human studies suggests that autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) is successful at inducing long-term remission and improvement in disability for people with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). read more »

The etiology of multiple sclerosis (MS) is still poorly understood, but it’s likely that a complex interplay of both genetic and environmental factors contributes to its development. Interestingly, no definitive evidence has been found for a genetic association with the clinical course of MS, suggesting that environmental factors might play a key role in prognosis. Diet is an obvious modifiable factor for physicians to explore with their MS patients given that food can have a powerful effect on the inflammatory process. read more »
