OBJECTIVE Assess whether CD70+ B cells contribute to EAE. MATERIALS AND METHODS MOG-specific TCR transgenic mice (2D2) were crossed with mice with constitutive CD70 expression on B cells. The development of EAE and the phenotype of B-T lymphocytes were studied in 2D2xCD70 animals. RESULTS Spontaneous EAE developed in 20% of 2D2xCD70 and 3% of 2D2 mice. EAE was also more severe in 2D2xCD70 v...

Chronic relapsing experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (CR-EAE) was induced in Lewis rats by inoculation with guinea pig spinal cord and adjuvants and treatment with low dose cyclosporin A (CsA). Acute EAE was induced by the same method without CsA treatment. Immunocytochemistry and flow cytometry were used to assess inflammatory cells and MHC class II (Ia) antigen expression in the centra...

Probiotics immunomodulatory properties and their beneficial effects for diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS) are reported by several studies. The current systematic review meta-analysis aimed to investigate the favourable of probiotics in improving experimental autoimmune/allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) an animal model MS. We systematically searched Scopus, Web Sciences (ISI), PubMed datab...

We induced experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) in SJL/J mice, an animal model for multiple sclerosis (MS), using myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)(92-106) peptide, following ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. While all control mice developed relapsing-remitting (RR)-EAE, UV irradiation induced secondary progressive (SP)-EAE in some of the mice. Although mild demyelination was obser...

Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is a useful model for aiding the development of new treatments for MS. All therapies approved for MS ameliorate EAE. Two approved medications, glatiramer acetate and Natalizumab, were developed directly from studies in EAE. Several trials are ongoing in MS after success in EAE, including altered peptide ligands of myelin, DNA vaccines and statins....

PURPOSE Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. It has been shown that memory deficits is common in patients with MS. Recent studies using experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) as an animal model of MS have shown that indicated that EAE causes hippocampal-dependent impairment in learning and memory. Thus far, there have be...

background: experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (eae) is an animal model of multiple sclerosis, which is a demyelinating and an inflammatory disease of central nervous system. recent studies have established that some molecules such as lipocaline2 (lcn2), which expresses during inflammatory conditions, play an important role in eae pathogenesis and might involve in its treatment process. r...

Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a Th1-mediated inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS), is a model of human multiple sclerosis. Cytosolic phospholipase A2alpha (cPLA2alpha), which initiates production of prostaglandins, leukotrienes, and platelet-activating factor, is present in EAE lesions. Using myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) immunization, as well ...

Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is one of the best-documented animal models of autoimmune disease. We examined the role of CD8+CD122+ regulatory T cells, which we previously identified as naturally occurring regulatory T cells that effectively regulate CD8+ T cells, in EAE. Depletion of CD8+CD122+ regulatory T cells by in vivo administration of anti-CD122 mAb resulted in persist...

Euphorbia helioscopia L. is a traditional Chinese medicine; recently research found that its ethyl acetate extract (EAE) plays an important role on tumor cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, and metastasis in vitro. But the effect of EAE for tumor cells in vivo has not been reported. To explore the inhibitory effect of EAE and molecular mechanism on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) SMMC-7721 ...
