Suppression of Ongoing Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis by Neutralizing the Function of the p28 Subunit of IL-27
1 Nov 2004
Abstract excerpt
IL-27 is a recently defined family member of the long-chain, four-helix bundle cytokines, which consist of EBI3, an IL-12p40-related protein, and p28, an IL-12p35-related polypeptide. The role of IL-27 in the regulation of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis has never been studied. We show in this study that neutralizing the in vivo function of IL-27 by Abs against IL-27 p28 rapidly suppressed an ongoing...
