Targeted Therapy of Multiple Sclerosis: A Case for Antigen-Specific Tregs.

Multiple sclerosis is an autoinflammatory condition that results in damage to myelinated neurons in affected patients. While disease-modifying treatments have been successful in slowing the progression of relapsing-remitting disease, most patients still progress to secondary progressive disease that is largely unresponsive to disease-modifying treatments. Similarly, there is currently no effective treatment for patients with primary progressive MS.

Novel Non-invasive Transcranial Electrical Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease.

Conventional transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) is a non-invasive method to modulate brain activity and has been extensively used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD). Despite promising prospects, the efficacy of conventional tES in PD treatment is highly variable across different studies. Therefore, many have tried to optimize tES for an improved therapeutic efficacy by developing novel tES intervention strategies.
