Protective Effect of Cytosolic Phospholipase A2 Inhibition against Inflammation and Degeneration by Promoting Regulatory T Cells in Rats with Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis

Figure 1

Neurological impairment scores in Lewis rats with experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). The rats were immunized with 25 μg of myelin basic protein (MBP) and 5 mg/mL of Mycobacterium butyricum and then treated with either the cPLA2 inhibitor AX059 or vehicle once daily, starting on the day of immunization for EAE induction. EAE development in the rats was assessed on a scale of 0–5.
