A Journey to the Conformational Analysis of T-Cell Epitope Peptides Involved in Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a serious central nervous system (CNS) disease responsible for disability problems and deterioration of the quality of life. Several approaches have been applied to medications entering the market to treat this disease. However, no effective therapy currently exists, and t...
