Normally, the cells of the immune system attack only foreign material and invading organisms. But in GBS, the immune system starts to destroy the myelin sheath that surrounds the axons of many nerve ...

which provides experimental evidence and a research basis for accurately maintaining the integrity of myelin sheath structure and function. 2.2 Pathophysiological mechanism involved in myelin sheath ...

We further demonstrated that anakinra ameliorated the disorganization and degeneration of myelin sheath, and reduced the neuron damage in cochlea of EH mice. Discussion: Consequently, anakinra ...
