Abstract

In this high resolution magnetic resonance spectroscopic study of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) and Semliki Forest virus (SFV) infection of the Bioui AB/H mouse, marked increases in the initially low levels of N‐trimethyl compounds in the spinal cord were observed during probable demyelinating episodes. There was also a pronounced and reproducible modulation of the levels of taurine and myo‐inositol during acute and again during chronic relapsing EAE. The ratio of N‐acetyl‐aspartate to creatine in the spinal cord of mice infected with the mutant M9 strain of SFV decreased to approximately 70% of that seen in normal mice.

## Abstract Aquaporin 4(AQP4) is a water channel protein strongly expressed in the central nervous system in perimicrovessel astrocyte foot processes, the glia limitans, and ependyma. Expression of AQP4 is highest at the blood‐brain barrier and blood‐spinal cord barrier, supporting its critical fun
