Description |
Neurodegeneration occurs early in multiple sclerosis (MS), contributes to irreversible clinical disability, and is poorly mitigated by currently available treatments. Retrograde trans-synaptic degeneration (rTSD) is a phenomenon in which injury to one neuroaxonal unit propagates retrogradely, amplifying neuronal loss from MS lesions. No effective ways of quantifying rTSD in the visual pathway or its impact on visual function have been performed. The objectives of this study were to quantify rTSD in MS and investigate its association with clinical characteristics and visual function. |
