Sample information of multiple sclerosis:
| Descent | RRMS |
| Disease | MS |
Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 25169051 |
| Year | 2015 |
| Title | Regulation of cannabinoid receptor gene expression and endocannabinoid levels in lymphocyte subsets by interferon-β: a longitudinal study in multiple sclerosis patients |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Result | CB1 expression was elevated in all cell subsets |
| Mechanism/pathway | The different expression of cannabinoid receptor genes and the increased level of AEA in lymphocytes point to a possible role of the cannabinoid system in MS immune response and its modulation by interferon. |
