Early Life Exposure to Lipopolysaccharide Suppresses Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis by Promoting Tolerogenic Dendritic Cells and Regulatory T Cells

Abstract: The rising incidence of autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS) in developed countries might be due to a more hygienic environment, particularly during early life. To investigate this concept, we developed a model of neonatal exposure to a common pathogen-associated molecular pattern, LPS, and determined its impact on experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). Mice exposed to LPS at 2 wk of age showed a delayed onset and diminished severity of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)-induced… Show more

“…Frontal brain white matter was collected at autopsy with consent from ageand sex-matched MS patients (total: n = 8; median age: 63 y; chronic progressive MS: n = 3; secondary progressive MS: n = 5) and non-MS (control) patients (total: n = 7; median age: 58 y; sepsis: n = 2; myocardial infarction: n = 2; HIV/AIDS: n = 1: cancer/leukemia n = 2) for RT-PCR analyses, as previously reported (32)(33)(34). Normal-appearing white matter (NAWM) was used from all clinical samples.…”
