The immune system uses many types of cells, including B cells and T cells, to help the body fight infections caused by viruses or bacteria.
B cells produce antibodies and stimulate other proteins. In MS, these can cause damage to the central nervous system.
T cells release chemicals that cause inflammation and damage. They also help to activate B cells.
A brain lesion describes the damage MS causes to any part of the central nervous systems such as the brain or spinal cord.
