Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis
Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is an animal model of multiple sclerosis (MS). MS is also named encephalomyelitis disseminata (ED). EAE has been also called experimental allergic encephalomyelitis, but the word `allergic` is more and more replaced by the word `autoimmune`. This has to do with the deeper understanding of the disease biology that has been gathered over the last ye...

myelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that takes a relapsing–remitting or a progressive course (reviewed in Refs 1,2). Its counterpart in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) is chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) (reviewed in Ref. 3). In addition, there are acute, monophasic disorders, such as the inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy t...
متن کاملPeptide immunotherapy in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.
We now have potent drugs available to treat the inflammatory component of multiple sclerosis (MS). However, not all patients respond, the drugs are not curative, and the associated risks to beneficial immune surveillance are considerable. A more desirable approach is to specifically target those comparatively rare T lymphocytes that are orchestrating the autoimmune attack. Using the autoantigen...
متن کاملPurkinje cell loss in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis
Gray matter atrophy observed by brain MRI is an important correlate to clinical disability and disease duration in multiple sclerosis. The objective of this study was to link brain atrophy visualized by neuroimaging to its underlying neuropathology using the MS model, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). Volumetric changes in brains of EAE mice, as well as matched healthy normal con...
متن کاملExperimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in the mouse.
This unit details the materials and methods required for both active induction and adoptive transfer of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in the SJL mouse strain using intact proteins or peptides from the two major myelin proteins: proteolipid protein (PLP) and myelin basic protein (MBP). Detailed materials and methods required for the purification of both PLP and MBP are also des...
