Key myelin protein, MBP, seen to break down differently in brains of MS patients

Researchers monitoring the decomposition of an abundant brain protein, called myelin basic protein (MBP), discovered that this protein breaks down differently in people with multiple sclerosis than it does in those without the disease, particularly in two surface regions, and that difference may be the trigger for immune reactions and myelin damage...Read more - http://www.ms-uk.org/key-myelin-protein ... nts-121216

Very quick and sloppy Google...
