It is now generally accepted that the demyelination seen in MS is caused by an abnormal immune process â that is, by activation of T cells (and perhaps B cells) against some component of central nervous system myelin (the fatty sheath that surrounds and insulates nerve fibers).
In multiple sclerosis (MS), the body's immune system T cells attack the myelin sheath that protects the nerve fibers. The T cells either partially or completely strip the myelin off the fibers, leaving the nerves unprotected and uninsulated. cells from the body's own immune system attack and destroy the myelin sheath Click to view larger image.
