Abstract:Previously, we reported that NR4A2, an orphan nuclear receptor, is upregulated by peripheral blood cells during the human autoimmune disease multiple sclerosis (MS), as well as by peripheral blood cells and leukocytes infiltrating the central nervous system (CNS) during experimental autoimmune encecephalomyelitis (EAE). The pathology of MS and EAE is mediated by infiltration of both Th1 and Th17 cells into the CNS, but we reveal that upregulation of NR4A2 observed in CNS-infiltrating leukocytes and peripheral … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
