| Sample Detail | N/A |
| Detected Method | PCR |
| Disease | EAE |
| Disease subtype | N/A |
| Population | N/A |

Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 16800783 |
| Year | 2006 |
| Title | Gene-Based Delivery of IFN-B Is Efficacious in a Murine Model of Experimental Allergic Encephalomyelitis |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Expression | up-regulation |
| Risk type | Disease risk |
| Result | A single injection of the MuIFN-B plasmid was as effective in reducing the severity of the disease as an every other day injection of MuIFN-B protein |
| Mechanism/Pathway | An expression plasmid was constructed using the natural MuIFN-B gene driven by the constitutively active CMV promoter |
