Abstract excerpt
Currently, there are no known treatments for protection of axonal loss associated with neuroinflammatory diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS). Survivin is a member of the inhibitors of the apoptosis (IAP) family of proteins that its neuroprotective effects have not been studied. We demonstrate here that SurR9-C84A, a survivin mutant, exhibits a neuroprotective role against the cytotoxic effects of activated...
