Abstract

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an immune-mediated and neurodegenerative central nervous system disease, mostly affect myelin sheaths. The MS pathogenesis is still under debate. It is influenced by genetic, environment factors. Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are highly conserved proteins seen in all organisms. Not only heat stress but also under many stress conditions they are overexpressed. Their roles in MS pathogenesis are highly correlated with their location (intracellular or extracellular). In this chapter, we will discuss the role of HSP in MS pathogenesis.
