Targeting T and B Cells as a Therapeutic Approach for Multiple Sclerosis

Targeting T and B Cells as a Therapeutic Approach for Multiple Sclerosis

Immunotherapies that target abnormally activated T and B cells may represent a unique combination and promising DMT strategy for patients with RRMS and have the greatest potential for long-term success. Targeting T cells in MS may help attenuate initiation and maintenance of inflammatory attacks by reducing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, recruitment of innate immune cells, stimulation of antibody production, and direct attack of myelin. Targeting B cells in MS may attenuate secretion of autoantibodies and pro-inflammatory cytokines, as well as presentation of self-antigen to T cells.
