TLDR
Ten inbred strains of mice were tested for their susceptibility to experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) after sensitization with mouse spinal cord in complete Freund's adjuvant followed by booster injections of Bordetella pertussis, and it was found that not all susceptible mice possessed the H-2s haplotype, but mice with an H-1q background (DBA1/J strain) were also susceptible.

Reactive Astrocytes Form Scar-Like Perivascular Barriers to Leukocytes during Adaptive Immune Inflammation of the CNS

TL;DR: Experimental evidence is provided that reactive astrocytes form scar-like perivascular barriers that restrict the influx of leukocytes into CNS parenchyma and protect CNS function during peripherally initiated, acquired immune inflammatory responses in the CNS.

Adoptive transfer of myelin basic protein-sensitized T cells produces chronic relapsing demyelinating disease in mice

TL;DR: It is reported here that a single transfer of MBP-sensitized lymph node cells or T cells, in the absence of a peripheral antigen depot, leads to both acute EAE with significant primary demyelination, and chronic relapsing disease with lesions typical of demYelination over a long period.

IFN-gamma is critical to the control of murine autoimmune encephalomyelitis and regulates both in the periphery and in the target tissue: a possible role for nitric oxide

TL;DR: The data suggest that IFN-gamma down-regulates EAE by inducing inducible NO synthase and subsequently NO production, both by macrophages in the periphery and, by inference, microglia and astrocytes in the target tissue.

Detecting axon damage in spinal cord from a mouse model of multiple sclerosis

TL;DR: It is suggested that axonal damage is more widespread than myelin damage in the spinal cord white matter of mice with EAE and that in vivo DTI may provide a sensitive and specific measure of white matter injury.

Evidence for involvement of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in lymphocyte interaction with endothelium in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in the central nervous system in the SJL/J mouse

TL;DR: Investigation of the expression of vascular adhesion molecules during the first stage of chronic inflammation in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in the SJL/J mouse showed that the vascular endothelium in brains and spinal cords from diseased animals expressed high levels of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and intercellular adhesion substance (ICAM) but no detectable mucosal addressin or peripheral lymph node addressin.
