Multiple sclerosis is a chronic demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. There is a need for new circulating biomarkers for multiple sclerosis, in particular, markers that differentiate multiple sclerosis subtypes (relapsing-remitting, secondary progressive and primary progressive multiple sclerosis), as this can help in making treatment decisions. In this study, we explore two classes of potential multiple sclerosis biomarkers-proteins and microRNAs-circulating in the cerebrospinal fluid and serum. Targeted medium-throughput proteomics (92 proteins) and microRNA sequencing were performed on serum samples collected in a cross-sectional case-control cohort (cohort I, controls
