In the central nervous system (CNS), p75, or lowaffinity nerve growth factor receptor (LNGFR), is assumed to play a critical role in mediating the effects of neurotrophins on neuronal survival. Recent studies have shown that nerve growth factor (NGF) can act also on immune cells through its binding

## Abstract Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is a CD4^+^ T cell disease of the central nervous system (CNS) characterized by mononuclear cell infiltration, demyelination, and paralysis. Recent studies describing the relationship of chemokine expression with development of clinical di
T cell co-stimulation through the CD28 receptor on T cells is critical to the induction of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). In this study, expression of the co-stimulatory ligands B7-1 (CD80) and B7-2 (CD86), as well as the receptors CD28 and CTLA-4, were quantitated in central nervo
## Abstract Cytokines and chemokines govern leukocyte trafficking, thus regulating inflammatory responses. In this study, the antiβinflammatory effects of low dose 17Ξ²βestradiol were evaluated on chemokine, chemokine receptor, and cytokine expression in the spinal cords (SC) of BV8S2 transgenic fem
