Descent SJL/J mice
Disease experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis

Literature information of multiple sclerosis :

Pubmed ID 23401502
Year 2013
Title Targeting estrogen receptor β in microglia and T cells to treat experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis

Results of multiple sclerosis :

Result Treatment of EAE mice with LY3201, a selective ERβ agonist provided by Eli Lilly, resulted in marked reduction of activated microglia in the spinal cord
Mechanism/pathway the ERβ-selective agonist LY3201 can inactivate microglia and invading T cells by down-regulating two important inflammatory pathways, NF-κB and iNOS
