There may be an easy way to treat immune related disorders in mice models of multiple sclerosis (MS), according to a study published in the Journal of Immunology 


Research. Researchers from the University of Florida used an infusion of spleen cells in combination with an autoantigen to block MS in mice models. The process used attaches disease related protein fragments, the autoantigens, to spleen cells to prevent MS. In mice models, MS causes brain and spinal cord inflammation, similar to human MS. The process was able to “dramatically reverse” MS in its early stages in the mice, the researchers said. –
