Abstract
Studies from Ionescu et al.1 and Clayton et al.2 using multiple sclerosis (MS) patient-derived cell models underscore cholesterol metabolism’s role in inflammatory and dysfunctional cell phenotypes in the disease. Inhibiting cholesterol biosynthesis ameliorated critical cellular phenotypes, emphasizing the need to further investigate this pathway as a potential target for MS treatment.
期刊介绍:
Cell Stem Cell is a comprehensive journal covering the entire spectrum of stem cell biology. It encompasses various topics, including embryonic stem cells, pluripotency, germline stem cells, tissue-specific stem cells, differentiation, epigenetics, genomics, cancer stem cells, stem cell niches, disease models, nuclear transfer technology, bioengineering, drug discovery, in vivo imaging, therapeutic applications, regenerative medicine, clinical insights, research policies, ethical considerations, and technical innovations. The journal welcomes studies from any model system providing insights into stem cell biology, with a focus on human stem cells. It publishes research reports of significant importance, along with review and analysis articles covering diverse aspects of stem cell research.
