Pubmed ID	16929354
Year	2007
Title	HSV-1-mediated IL-1 receptor antagonist gene therapy ameliorates MOG(35-55)-induced experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in C57BL/6 mice

Results of multiple sclerosis :

Result	Proinflammatory cytokine mRNAs are downregulated in the brain from C57BL/6 EAE mice.
Mechanism/pathway	The decreased number of CNS-infiltrating macrophages can determine decreased levels of monocyte-related proinflammatory cytokine mRNA such as IL-1b, IL-6 and TNF-a.
