Priming of Myelin-Specific T Cells in the Absence of Dendritic Cells Results in Accelerated Development of Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis
2020-12-29
Abstract excerpt
Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), the animal model of multiple sclerosis (MS), is predominantly mediated by pro-inflammatory CD4 + T cell responses to CNS antigens, including myelin proteolipid protein (PLP). Dendritic cells (DCs) are considered critical for inducing T cell responses against infectious agents, but the importance of DCs in priming self-reactive CD4+ T cells in autoimmune disease suc...
