Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune inflammatory disease of the central nervous system characterized by demyelination and axonal degeneration. MS affects approximately 2.8 million people worldwide. The disease is mediated by autoreactive T cells and B cells that attack myelin sheaths, leading to disrupted nerve signal transmission. Key pathological features include inflammatory lesions, blood-brain barrier breakdown, oligodendrocyte death, and progressive neurodegeneration.
