Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS). It is characterized by loss of myelin, the fatty tissue that surrounds and protects nerve fibres allowing them to conduct electrical impulses.

Noncoding ribonucleic acids micro-RNA is involved in the regulation of gene expression have major roles in the post-transcriptional level. A micro-RNA alone several causes down regulation of mRNA transcript of the target. Thus, small changes in the expression of a micro RNA may lead to significant changes in gene expression are different. Micro- RNA as key regulators of immune cell lineage diff...

To quantitate the extent of corpus callosum atrophy in multiple sclerosis, midsagittal corpus callosum areas were determined in 48 controls with normal MR scans and 41 patients with definite multiple sclerosis. The mean midsagittal corpus callosum area was 601 mm2 (range 405-791), 641 mm2, and 561 mm2 for all adult controls, for adult males, and for adult females, respectively. Control values w...
