Gaining entry to an uninflamed brain

Gaining entry to an uninflamed brain Little is known about how pathogenic T cells gain access to the uninflamed brain in multiple sclerosis and experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. A new study reports that interleukin 17–producing T helper cells enter the uninflamed central nervous system through the choroid plexus by a CCR6-CCL20–dependent mechanism. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Nature Immunology Springer Journals

Abstract

Little is known about how pathogenic T cells gain access to the uninflamed brain in multiple sclerosis and experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. A new study reports that interleukin 17–producing T helper cells enter the uninflamed central nervous system through the choroid plexus by a CCR6-CCL20–dependent mechanism.
