Abstract: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological condition characterized by the disruption of the blood-brain barrier, immune system activation, and inflammation that is accompanied by glial reactivity, neuronal cell death, axon demyelination, and axotomy. Pathological changes result in functional loss including paralysis, migraine, vision problems, spasticity, and neuropathic pain. Although the causative factor responsible for triggering MS remains to be identified, anti-inflammatory treatments have been translated to clinical use with favorable reductions in the frequency, severity, and duration of relapses in the relapsing-remitting form of MS. Among the identified therapeutic targets in MS, transglutaminase-2 (TG2) has been reported to be involved in disease pathogenesis (Chrobok et al., 2018).
