How effective is Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell Therapy in treating Autoimmune Diseases of the Central Nervous System?
Autoimmune conditions of the central nervous system (CNS) can be quite devastating, presenting with a multitude of symptoms of varying severity. Treatments often require meticulous targeting of specific proteins to reduce the immune response without over-suppressing the immune system or causing severe side effects from interacting with proteins of similar properties. Drugs targeting the chimeric antigen have been used to treat autoimmune conditions for a few decades, but how does it compare to other treatment regimens for CNS autoimmune conditions? Read below to find out more.
