Synergistic increase in nerve growth factor secretion by cultured vascular smooth muscle cells treated with injury-related growth factors.

abstract：:Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an immune-mediated demyelinating disorder of unknown etiology. Both genetic-susceptibility and environment exposures, including vitamin D deficiency, Epstein-Barr viral and Herpesvirus (HHV-6) infections are strongly implicated in the activation of T cells and MS-pathogenesis. Despite precis...
