This volume explores the recent advances in the study of translational paths in central inflammation and focuses on ongoing pathophysiological processes and the transition between inflammatory stages and progressive states with neurodegeneration. Chapters cover topics such as pathophysiological hallmarks of neuroinflammation from tissue damage to reorganization; connecting studies of mouse models; and investigations of humans with multiple sclerosis. In the Neuromethods series style, chapters include the kind of detail and key advice from the specialists needed to get successful results in your laboratory.
Cutting-edge and practical, Translational Methods for Multiple Sclerosis Research is a valuable resource for researchers who want to learn more about this chronic ad progressive disease, and pave the way for new advancements.
