New Study Reports Evidence that Vitamin D Plays a Role in Myelin Repair
December 14, 2015
Researchers at the University of Cambridge report that a molecule activated by vitamin D pairs with a protein involved in the repair of nerve-insulating myelin, which is damaged in MS. This pairing increases the development of cells that can generate new myelin. This study was funded by the MS Society in the United Kingdom. If confirmed by further study, these findings are
yet another indication of vitamin D’s role in MS.
