An Italian team has made a major
advance in the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) with neural
stem cells.
The first of 12 Italian MS patients was injected with the
cells, taken from fetal nerves, on Friday at Milan's San
Raffaele Hospital.
The transplant is set to be monitored over the coming weeks
and months.
It could pave the way for therapies able to repair the nerve
damage caused by the disease.
