Background and Objectives: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system (CNS). Although, the contribution of various cells such as B cells, CD8+ T cells, microglia/macrophages, dendritic cells, asterocytes and mast cells in the pathogenesis of MS have been demonstrated, however, it seems that autoreactive myelin specific CD4+ T cells pla...

Islet Amyloid Polypeptide is not a Target Antigen for CD8+ T-Cells in Type 2 Diabetes
Background: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a chronic metabolic disorder in which beta-cells are destroyed. The islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) produced by beta-cells has been reported to influence beta-cell destruction. Objective: To evaluate if IAPP can act as an autoantigen and therefore, to see if CD8 + T-cells specific for this protein might be present in T2D patients. Methods: Peripheral blood ...
متن کاملO11: Novel Approaches to Prevent Neuroinflammation by Targeting the Coagulation System
There is growing appreciation that other factors not traditionally considered components of the immune system foster inflammation in multiple sclerosis (MS) and its animal model, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). The blood coagulation initiating factor XII was introduced as key mediator of central nervous system (CNS) autoimmunity by modulation of adaptive immune response. Moreov...
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. ...
