MicroRNA treatment restores nerve insulation, limb function in mice with multiple sclerosis

First we need to know if myelin is damaged during a stroke. Ask your doctor that question, I have not been able to find a concrete answer. Ask your doctor which number of microRNA is needed.

Scientists partially re-insulated ravaged nerves in mouse models of multiple sclerosis (MS) and restored limb mobility by treating the animals with a small non-coding RNA called a microRNA.
