The test can be completed in about one minute and is free to use for clinicians and researchers.
Expression of DICAM on TH17 Lymphocytes Documented in Neuroinflammation
DICAM was strongly linked with expression of ROR-γ, IL-23R, IL-17, IL-22, GM-CSF, and GZMB expression in human CD4+ lymphocytes.
NEDA-4 More Accurate Measure of Activity in Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis
The additional measure of brain volume loss results in a more comprehensive evaluation of disease activity in RRMS.
