Results of multiple sclerosis :

Result Analysis of the mechanisms leading to this attenuated inflammatory response showed a decrease in the serum levels of TNF-a and an inhibition of the activation of the transcription factor NF-kB in various tissues.
Mechanism/pathway systemic administration of IFN-b might influence the response to pro-inflammatory stimuli, in particular through the antagonism of IFN-g signaling.
