All MS patients share increased inflammatory B and T cells, but differ in regulatory or NK subsets, which identify highly inflammatory or benign disease courses

The course ends with the feeling of having learned, shared, and connected with patients, clinicians, physiotherapists, and researchers. Thanks to #UIMP and especially to Dr. Diego Clemente for the tremendous effort in making it possible!

Slide projected in a conference room showing two possible functional states of microglia: "Inflammatory" and "Resolving." Their effects are in a list, such as immune cell activation and demyelination in the inflammatory state, and debris clearance and myelin repair in the resolving state.

Today was the last day of the course, focused on the dual role of microglia. Its “foamy” phenotype, after phagocytosing damaged myelin, becomes proinflammatory. The purinergic receptor P2X4 was highlighted, as well as the potential of drugs like ivermectin to modulate its response #MS_UIMP25

Second day at #UIMP, discussing aging in #MS: biomarkers of axonal damage #NfL and inflammation #GFAP, and the impact of immunosenescence with experts like María Villar. We also had a moment to enjoy a bit of sunshine around the Palacio de la Magdalena, Santander #MS_UIMP25
