New evidence has highlighted that miRNA production and trafficking can be dysregulated in both autoimmmune and neurological disorders. Multiple sclerosis (MS) in particular is an autoimmune pathology leading to neurodegeneration. Profiling studies performed on cells derived from MS patients have described a dysregulated network of miRNAs in both immune and neural cells. Interestingly, new evide...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, abundant RNA molecules that constitute part of the cell's non-coding RNA "dark matter." In recent years, the discovery of miRNAs has revolutionised the traditional view of gene expression and our understanding of miRNA biogenesis and function has expanded. Altered expression of miRNAs is increasingly recognized as a feature of many disease states, including neurode...

introduction: the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of water exercises on the quality of life in patients with multiple sclerosis. methods: 30 multiple sclerosis patients (40-65 years old) were selected by available sample. they were divided into control and experimental groups. the instrument was the quality of life questionnaire (sf-36) in this study. the experimental group par...

aim and background: this study reviewed the effectiveness of self-control training on quality of life in patients with multiple sclerosis (ms). to do so, 40 patients with ms were selected through convenient sampling method among the study subjects with multiple sclerosis recorded in ardabil in 2012 (estimation: n = 350). methods and materials: this was a clinical trial designed as pretest postt...

dream should be considered as a kind of cognitive ability that is formed parallel to other cognitive capabilities like language. on the other hand, multiple sclerosis (ms) is a complex disease that can involve different aspects of our cognition. therefore, ms may influence patients' dreams. in fact, we do not know what the importance of dream is in ms, but further studies may introduce dream an...
