Regulation of neuroinflammatory properties of glial cells by T cell effector molecules

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory and neurodegenerative disorder that is thought to be mediated by autoreactive T lymphocytes that find their way into the central nervous system (CNS). The pathological mechanism of MS is still being elucidated but it involves complex interactions bet...

Description
Summary:Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory and neurodegenerative disorder that is thought to be mediated by autoreactive T lymphocytes that find their way into the central nervous system (CNS). The pathological mechanism of MS is still being elucidated but it involves complex interactions between infiltrating immune cells and resi- dent glial cells within the CNS that culminate into strong neuroinflammation and axonal damage.
