Different Mechanisms of Inflammation Induced in Virus and Autoimmune-Mediated Models of Multiple Sclerosis in C57BL6 Mice

Table 2

Pattern and level of inflammation in EAE- and RSA59-infected mouse spinal cords.

Distribution of inflammation	Acute phase MHV	Chronic phase MHV	Acute phase EAE	Chronic phase EAE
Gray matter	1/8 (12.5%)	0/5 (0%)	0/8 (0%)	0/12 (0%)
White matter	1/8 (12.5%)	5/5 (100%)	8/8 (100%)	12/12 (100%)
Both gray and white matters	6/8 (75%)	0/5 (0%)	0/8 (0%)	0/12 (0%)
No inflammation	0/8 (0%)	0/5 (0%)	0/8 (0%)	0/12 (0%)

𝑋/𝑌 = number of mice exhibiting the staining pattern (𝑋) out of the total number examined (𝑌). Numbers in parentheses are the percentages of mice exhibiting each staining pattern.
