Possible explanation for gender differences in MS - and its vascular. They found high levels of S1PR2 in the areas of the brain typically damaged by MS in both mice and people. The activity of the gene coding for S1PR2 was positively correlated with the severity of the disease in mice, the study said. Scientists said S1PR2 could work by helping to make the blood-brain barrier, in charge of stopping potentially harmful substances from entering the brain and spinal fluid, more permeable. A more permeable barrier could let attacking cells, which cause MS, into the central nervous system, the study said Check out this link for further explanation of how S1PR2 could be linked to the hypoxic condition seen in CCSVI. ccsviinms.blogspot.au/2014/05/why-do-women-have-higher-ms-rates-s1pr2.html Kerri (with thanks to Heather) bbc/news/health-27323472
