Investigations

The meninges are an important anatomical checkpoint for CNS autoinflammatory diseases, as this is where immune cells are recruited and where they can chronically persist. We propose that CNS persistent inflammation alters the meningeal milieu, particularly the vessels, creating a chronic inflammatory environment. This sustained inflammation impedes CNS recovery from acute damage. Our research aims to identify, in animal models and human samples of multiple sclerosis, cells and factors in the ...
