Detailed explanation-1: -Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a potentially disabling disease of the brain and spinal cord (central nervous system). In MS, the immune system attacks the protective sheath (myelin) that covers nerve fibers and causes communication problems between your brain and the rest of your body.

Detailed explanation-2: -In MS, the immune system becomes confused and attacks the protective myelin coating around our nerves by mistake. If myelin is damaged by the immune system, the nerve can’t communicate properly and may eventually die. To stop MS, we need to stop the immune system attacking myelin.

Detailed explanation-3: -Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an acquired autoimmune disease that affects both the brain and the spinal cord leading to a variety of symptoms, including changes in motor function, sense perception, and mental function, along with fatigue [1–3].

Detailed explanation-4: -Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune inflammatory illness that affects the central nervous system (CNS) when the body’s immune system attacks its tissue.
