Multiple sclerosis is a rigorous disease caused by the progressive destruction of myelin sheath in the central nervous system. The Guillain-Barre disease is due to the demolition of myelin sheath in the peripheral nervous system caused by autoimmunity (that is, attack by the own immune system). The genetic deficit in the formation or preservation of myelin sheath is an X-linked inheritance termed as adrenoleukodystrophy.
