  • Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that causes signals travelling through our nerves and brain to slow down significantly or stop completely, leading to a wide range of debilitating neurological symptoms. Clearly, neurons are being damaged...but by what? Check out this week's episode of Medicurio to learn more about this disease.
    Medicurio episodes are short and only give a relatively condensed explanation of the disease. To learn more about multiple sclerosis, or to donate to its research, check out the following websites:
    MS Society of Canada: mssociety.ca/
    Multiple Sclerosis Foundation: msfocus.org/
    National Multiple Sclerosis Society: www.nationalmss...
    In the video, I've simplified the movement of electrical signals because they actually involve more ion channels that open and close in response to each other and the potential. For a more in-depth understanding of these electrical signals, known as action potentials and electrotonic transfer, check out this cool animation by Neuroscience 5e: sites.sinauer.c...

      Kudos for the Video! Sorry for the intrusion, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you heard about - Liyaraah Sclerosis Redemption (do a google search)? It is an awesome exclusive product for overcoming the symptoms of multiple sclerosis minus the hard work. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my old buddy Taylor at last got great success with it.

      the talk about - Liyaraah Sclerosis Redemption (google it)? It is a great one off product for overcoming the symptoms of multiple sclerosis without the hard work. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my good mate called Gray got great results with it.

      Wendy's World look up Dr Joel Wallach on Alzheimer's disease. Its caused by using statin drugs that reduce cholesterol. Myelin is mostly cholesterol. Dr. Wallach knows how to help your mom.

      Alzheimer's is not caused by demyelination. That is the easiest way I can explain that to you.

    will B12 supplementation help to prevent

    • @Medicurio
      @Medicurio  Před 4 lety +1

      According to the National MS Society, B12 deficiency can mimic multiple sclerosis symptoms, and some people with MS also have B12 deficiency, but a causal link has yet to be established. If a patient has B12 deficiency, supplementation is recommended, but there is no evidence that B12 supplementation with normal B12 levels does anything to treat/prevent MS.

  • @mven
    @mven Před 7 lety

    This really makes me wonder what would happen if we could artificially boost the speed of the signal. If we take that further than just curing MS, boosting the signal to faster than baseline.
    What would the effects of artificial "anti-MS" be? Would that even be biologically sustainable?

    • @Medicurio
      @Medicurio  Před 7 lety +3

      Interesting point, I've never really thought of that. From what I understand, the distances between the Nodes of Ranvier are evolutionarily adapted so that the distance are just long enough to maximize the distance the signal travels electronically (which is very fast), but short enough so that the signal doesn't dissipate before hitting the next node. Therefore, I think we are at our maximum signal speed - increasing this speed may not even be biologically possible.
      However, if we are somehow able to increase this speed, I would imagine it would increase our thought processing and reflexes immensely. Maybe induce some kind of heightened state of mind. That would be pretty awesome.

    • @mven
      @mven Před 7 lety

      Evolutionary biology is limited by the materials available to it, though. Could we come up with better solutions if we're not afraid to graft some modern materials science into our cells?

    • @Medicurio
      @Medicurio  Před 7 lety

      That might be possible, but that seems to be delving into biotechnology, which I don't have too much knowledge in. What you proposed could be a cure for MS though, if it does exist.

  • @nero91
    @nero91 Před 7 lety

    Great video again, keep em coming, but how about some background music? Nothing fancy or intruding, just simple maybe.

    • @Medicurio
      @Medicurio  Před 7 lety +2

      Thanks for the support! The last time background music was brought up, slightly more people wanted no music, so I've kept it that way. I'll incorporate some non-intrusive background music in my next video to see if I like it better than no music.
