High dose corticosteroid (CS) administration is a common mode of therapy in treatment of acute relapses in multiple sclerosis (MS) but the effects of CS on remyelination and the cellular mechanisms mediating this repair process are controversial. We have examined CS effects on repair of toxin-induce
The distance over which remyelinating cells within surrounding intact tissue are stimulated to respond to a demyelinating lesion and migrate toward it is unknown. To address this issue we have conducted a series of experiments in which the generation of remyelinating cells in tissue surrounding a sp
The destruction of central nervous system (CNS) myelin, the lipid-rich insulator surrounding axons in the mammalian brain and spinal cord, is the primary pathological finding in multiple sclerosis. Myelin loss can result in a significant clinical deficit, and was originally thought to be permanent,
