Abstract: The article focuses on a novel therapy for multiple sclerosis (MS) using bioengineered particles. Topics include the development of microparticles loaded with rapamycin and functionalized with interleukin-2 (IL-2) and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II to target and activate myelin-specific regulatory T cells, leading to disease reversal and potential treatment for autoimmune diseases.
