Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) models multiple sclerosis (MS) and is
characterized by marked mononuclear cell influx in the brain. Several studies have
demonstrated a role for chemokines during EAE. It remains to be determined whether these
mediators modulate EAE primarily by mediating leukocyte influx into the CNS or by
modifying lymphocyte activation and/or trafficking into lymphoid organs. After induction of
EAE with MOG35–55, leukocyte recruitment peaked on day 14 and correlated with symptom …
