The Influence of the Proinflammatory Cytokine, Osteopontin, on Autoimmune Demyelinating Disease

Multiple sclerosis is a demyelinating disease, characterized by inflammation in the brain and spinal cord, possibly due to autoimmunity. Large-scale sequencing of cDNA libraries, derived from plaques dissected from brains of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), indicated an abundance of transcript...
