Demyelinated neocortical lesions in marmoset autoimmune encephalomyelitis mimic those in multiple sclerosis.
The use of immunohistochemical methods has led to a new understanding of the prevalence and significance of cortical lesions in multiple sclerosis but these lesions have not yet been formally described in an animal model. In this study we have set out to use immunohistochemical techniques to identify and describe cortical lesions in marmosets with experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE)...
متن کاملIncrease of sodium channels in demyelinated lesions of multiple sclerosis.
Redistribution of sodium channels along demyelinated pathways in multiple sclerosis (MS) could be an important event in restoring conduction prior to other reparative mechanisms such as remyelination. Sodium channels in human multiple sclerosis lesions were identified by quantitative light microscopic autoradiography using tritiated saxitoxin (STX), a highly specific sodium channel ligand. Demy...
متن کاملImmunomodulatory Effect of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Multiple Sclerosis and Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis: A Review Study
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory and demyelinating disease of the central nervous system that may lead to disability of the patient. Current MS treatment regimens are still insufficient and research is conducted for developing more effective therapies capable of targeting neurodegeneration, inflammation, and demyelination. Recent results of experimental and clinical studies in ...
متن کاملSynaptic plasticity in multiple sclerosis and in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.
Approximately half of all patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) experience cognitive dysfunction, including learning and memory impairment. Recent studies suggest that hippocampal pathology is involved, although the mechanisms underlying these deficits remain poorly understood. Evidence obtained from a mouse model of MS, the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), suggests that in the ...
متن کاملT cells in multiple sclerosis and experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating inflammatory disorder of the central nervous system (CNS), which involves autoimmune responses to myelin antigens. Studies in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), an animal model for MS, have provided convincing evidence that T cells specific for self-antigens mediate pathology in these diseases. Until recently, T helper type 1 (Th1) cells ...
