Title Blocking ion channel KCNN4 alleviates the symptoms of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in mice

Results of multiple sclerosis :

Result Treatment with TRAM-34 reduced the level of proinflammatory cytokines IFN-γ and TNF-a.
Mechanism/pathway A selective KCNN4 ion-channel blocker, TRAM-34, protected mice from developing EAE, a T cell mediated inflammatory disease, primarily by reducing the level of IFN-γ and TNF-a proteins in the cell infiltrated areas of the central nervous system.
