Core Tip	Autoimmune disorders of the nervous system still pose a significant therapeutic challenge. Current treatments focus on symptom management but no cure exists. Since many of these disorders are caused by demyelination, it follows that remyelination may be key in finding a cure. Promising new research focuses on the use of endogenous cellular and inflammatory mediators to induce remyelination in patients with demyelinating diseases. These efforts may culminate in treatments such as stem cell transplantation and signaling pathway manipulation. In addition to these systemic therapies, nerve guide conduits have shown promise in aiding the recovery of peripheral nerve injuries.
