The pathophysiology of acute experimental allergic encephalomyelitis induced by whole spinal cord in the Lewis rat.
Histological and electrophysiological studies were performed on Lewis rats with acute experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) induced by inoculation with guinea-pig spinal cord and Freund's adjuvants, in order to determine the cause of the neurological signs. These studies demonstrated demyelination-induced nerve conduction block in the large and also the smaller diameter fibres at the ve...

Histological and electrophysiological studies were performed on Lewis rats with acute experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) induced by inoculation with guinea-pig myelin basic protein (MBP) and Freund's adjuvant. The histological studies showed demyelination in the lumbar, sacral and coccygeal dorsal and ventral spinal roots and to a lesser extent in the spinal cord, including the dorsa...
متن کاملDemyelination and Nerve Conduction Abnormalities in Acute and Chronic Experimental Allergic Encephalomyelitis in the Lewis Rat
We have been using histological and electrophysiological techniques to compare the pathology and pathophysiology in different forms of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) in the Lewis rat. In acute EAE induced by sensitization to myelin basic protein (MBP) or by the passive transfer of MBPspecific lymphocytes, there is inflammation and demyelination in the ventral and dorsal spinal ro...
متن کاملThe pathophysiology of acute experimental allergic encephalomyelitis in the rabbit.
Clinical, histological and electrophysiological studies were performed on rabbits with acute experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE). The clinical features were similar to those previously described, with the notable exception of the new findings of areflexia, respiratory slowing and hypothermia. The histological findings were also similar to those previously reported, with inflammatory d...
متن کاملLiver Damage and Mortality in a Male Lewis Rat of Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis
Background and Objectives: Multiple sclerosis is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system. This is due to migration of peripherally activated lymphocytes to central nervous system leading to inflammatory lesions. However, liver has an anti-inflammatory microenvironment. Myelin expression in the liver of transgenic mice suppresses inflammatory lesions within central nervous system. ...
