BBC NEWS | Health | MS nerve damage repaired in lab


BBC NEWS | Health | MS nerve damage repaired in lab: "US scientists have repaired the nerve damage caused by multiple sclerosis in lab experiments on mice.

MS is caused by a defect in the body's immune system, which turns in on itself, and attacks the fatty myelin sheath which coats the nerves."
