Summary:

The Daily Mail reports on a new trial in Britain using bone marrow stem cells to treat multiple sclerosis:

"A pioneering new treatment which could help thousands of multiple sclerosis suffers "recover" from the incurable disease is being trialled for the first time at a British hospital. The patients will be injected with bone marrow stem cells, which researchers hope will repair damaged areas of the brain and spinal cord and 'reverse' their physical decline."
