Transgenic Interleukin 10 Prevents Induction of Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis
The effectiveness of interleukin 10 (IL-10) in the treatment of autoimmune-mediated central nervous system inflammation is controversial. Studies of the model system, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), using various routes, regimens, and delivery methods of IL-10 suggest that these variables may affect its immunoregulatory function. To study the influence of these factors on IL-10...
متن کاملCD28-independent induction of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.
Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is a T cell-mediated disease initiated by antigen-specific CD4(+) T cells. Signaling through CD28 is a critical second signal for activation of T cells, and CD28 knockout (CD28KO) mice have been reported to be resistant to induction of EAE. We now report that CD28KO mice have no intrinsic defect in mediating disease, because they developed EAE aft...
متن کاملIFN-inducible protein 10/CXC chemokine ligand 10-independent induction of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.
In multiple sclerosis (MS) and its animal model, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), autoaggressive T cells traffic into the CNS and induce disease. Infiltration of these pathogenic T cells into the CNS has been correlated with the expression of the chemokine IFN-inducible protein (IP)10/CXC chemokine ligand (CXCL)10, a chemoattractant for activated T cells, and its receptor CXCR3,...
متن کاملEstrogen treatment prevents gray matter atrophy in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.
Gray matter atrophy is an important correlate to clinical disability in multiple sclerosis (MS), and many treatment trials include atrophy as an outcome measure. Atrophy has been shown to occur in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), the most commonly used animal model of MS. The clinical severity of EAE is reduced in estrogen-reated mice, but it remains unknown whether estrogen tre...
متن کاملPrevention of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis by antibodies against interleukin 12
Experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system that can be transferred to naive mice via CD4+ T cells isolated from appropriately immunized mice. We have evaluated the effects of recombinant murine interleukin 12 (rmIL-12), a potent inducer of interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) and promoter of Th1 T cell development, on the course of adoptively tr...
