Dr.B reviews how Tecfidera (dimethyl fumerate) works to treat multiple sclerosis. This is an oral pill taken twice daily for relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis. (Recorded LIVE via PERISCOPE)
Tecfidera plays a trick on the cells. By stimulating the NEF2 pathway, it tricks cells into thinking they are under oxidative stress. As a result the tricked cells respond with an anti-oxidant cascade that ultimately slows down MS disease activity! Fascinating and novel mechanism of action.
