That is the real reason for the post. It makes more sense to me that the right side of the body would be more affected since the big issue appears to be the diseased state of the brain (oligodendrocytes).

MS is not a disease that just affects the brain - MS is a disease of the CNS which is the brain and the spine. MS can and does affect one or both of these areas.
If someone has MS affecting the cervical spine more so than the brain I don't think what your looking for will hold up for MS....JMO.
