Illustrations of a focal spinal cord lesion of MOG induced EAE in the DA rat.

Abstract

<p>LFB staining shows a focal demyelinated lesion in the dorsal funiculus with myelin loss (A–B). ED-1 immunostaining highlights the presence of macrophages/microglia cells within the lesion (C). MBP immunohistochemistry illustrates the loss of myelin and the presence of myelin-laden macrophages (close up in insert) is indicative of recent myelin phagocytosis (D).</p
