Edaravone, a free radical scavenger, ameliorates experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.

Abstract:

:Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS) and its murine model experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). The effect of edaravone, a free radical scavenger, on EAE was investigated in this study. Treatment with edaravone significantly ameliorated the clinical severity of EAE, and a reduced infiltration of lymphocytes was observed based on a histological analysis. The expression of inducible NO synthase (iNOS) in the spinal cords appeared to be reduced by the treatment with edaravone and this effect was confirmed in vitro. A reduction of both the cellular infiltration and the expression of iNOS may therefore underlie the mechanisms of the beneficial effect of edaravone on EAE.
