Presentation Transcript

  1. What is Multiple Sclerosis (MS)? • Autoimmune, neurodegenerative, and inflammatory condition • Attacks the central nervous system (CNS) • Immune system malfunctions, attacking the body's own tissues

  2. Components of a Healthy Immune System • Cells, proteins, organs • Protects against infections (viruses, bacteria, etc.) • White blood cells (lymphocytes): B Cells and T Cells

  3. Functions of Lymphocytes B Cells • Developed in bone marrow • Produce antibodies T Cells • Mature in thymus gland • Release chemicals to destroy foreign substances • Activate B Cells

  4. MS Immune System Malfunction As a demyelinating disorder, MS impacts the immune system by: • Damaging the myelin sheath of neurons • Makes the immune system attacks its own cells and tissues

  5. Role of T-Cells in MS • T-Cells attack myelin in the CNS • Release inflammatory chemicals • Damage nerve fibers and myelin sheath • They penetrate the blood brain barrier (BBB)

  6. Consequences of Myelin Damage Scar Tissue Formation • Disrupts communication between CNS and body • Affects nerve signal transmission

  7. Common Symptoms of MS • Fatigue - Severe exhaustion beyond typical tiredness • Abnormal Sensations - Numbness, tingling, dysesthesia, allodynia Visual and Muscle Symptoms • Vision Issues - Double or blurry vision • Muscle Problems - Weakness, balance issues, walking troubles Additional Symptoms • Loss of bladder control • Depression, cognitive impairment

  8. Complications of MS • Osteoporosis • Pressure Sores • Swallowing issues leading to inhaling food particles
