Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 28464811 |
| Year | 2017 |
| Title | Effect of catalpol on remyelination through experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis acting to promote Olig1 and Olig2 expressions in mice |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Expression | up-regulation |
| Risk type | Disease risk |
| Result | These data demonstrated that Catalpol had a strong neuroprotective effect on EAE mice. Catalpol also plays a role in remyelination by promoting the expressions of Olig1 and Olig2 transcription factors. |
| Mechanism/Pathway | increased the protein expressions of NG2 and MBP in mice brains |
