  • Title: Genetic models for CNS inflammation.
    Author: Owens T, Wekerle H, Antel J.
    Journal: Nat Med; 2001 Feb; 7(2):161-6. PubMed ID: 11175845.
    Abstract:
    The use of transgenic technology to over-express or prevent expression of genes encoding molecules related to inflammation has allowed direct examination of their role in experimental disease. This article reviews transgenic and knockout models of CNS demyelinating disease, focusing primarily on the autoimmune disease multiple sclerosis, as well as conditions in which an inflammatory response makes a secondary contribution to tissue injury or repair, such as neurodegeneration, ischemia and trauma.
