Pubmed ID 21354971
Year 2011
Title Fumaric acid esters exert neuroprotective effects in neuroinflammation via activation of the Nrf2 antioxidant pathway

Results of multiple sclerosis :

Result In mice deficient for nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-related factor 2 on the same genetic background, the dimethylfumarate mediated beneficial effects on clinical course, axon preservation and astrocyte activation were almost completely abolished thus proving the functional relevance of this transcription factor for the neuroprotective mechanism of action.
Mechanism/pathway where dimethylfumarate applicationmay lead to direct Nrf2 activation, not only in different neuronalpopulations, but also in oligodendrocytes and astrocytes
