“…Results from our lab have determined that complement plays a role in the murine cuprizone-mediated demyelination and remyelination model. When a soluble CNS-specific form of the rodent complement regulatory protein, Crry (sCrry) was expressed, mice were protected from demyelination during cuprizone treatment, implicating a role for C3 and downstream complement proteins in this model (Briggs et al, 2007). In our current studies, we utilized the murine cuprizone model to assess the role of local C3a and C5a production in the brain during demyelination and remyelination.…”
