Journal Article
Ramasamy, R., Joseph, B., & Whittall, T. (2017). Potential molecular mimicry between the human endogenous retrovirus W family envelope proteins and myelin proteins in multiple sclerosis. Immunology Letters, 183, 79-85. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.imlet.2017.02.003

© 2017 European Federation of Immunological Societies Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease caused by the destruction of the myelin sheath in the central nervous system. The major target molecules for the immune response are the myelin basic pr...
