Scientists and doctors are still puzzled by the causes of complex neurological disorders like Alzheimer’s and multiple sclerosis. These diseases are not solely caused by genetic factors, as environmental influences play a significant role. One common factor in many neurological diseases is a toxic immune reaction triggered by blood leaking into the brain through damaged blood vessels. Dr. Katerina Akassoglou and her team have found that targeting a blood protein called fibrin can prevent or interrupt this harmful cascade, offering potential protection against various neurological diseases. Their research has led to the development of a promising new immunotherapy that is currently in clinical trials. Collaborative efforts across different scientific disciplines are expected to lead to significant breakthroughs in the treatment of neurological diseases in the future.
