No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic immune central nervous system (CNS) disease of unknown cause. Recent studies suggest that gut microbiota could be a trigger for the neuro-inflammation in MS and abnormal gut microbiota composition has been reported in MS patients. These data provided scientific rationale for microbiota-directed intervention, like stool transplant, for the treatment of MS.
