Regulation of Neuroinflammation and Demyelination by Cystatin F Following Murine Coronavirus Infection of the Central Nervous System

The Role of Cystatin F in Regulating Neuroinflammation and Demyelination in Spinal Cord Poliovirus Infection Background Knowledge Cystatin F is a secreted lysosomal cysteine protease inhibitor associated with every stage of virus-related neurological diseases, including host defense, demyelination, and myelination. However, research on how Cystatin...

The Therapeutic Role of Interferon-γ in Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis is Mediated Through a Tolerogenic Subset of Splenic CD11b+ Myeloid Cells

The Therapeutic Role of IFN-γ in Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis is Mediated by Tolerogenic Subsets of Splenic CD11b+ Myeloid Cells Research Background Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by demyelination and axonal damage in the central nervous system (CNS). Although the etiology of MS is unclear, both g...
