Conditioning and Dorsal Column Lesions:

The right sciatic nerve of both WT and MT-I/II-deficient mice (n = 6 for both groups) was lesioned. 7 days later under isoflurane anesthesia, a laminectomy was performed at the T89 level, and the dorsal column was transected to a depth of 1 mm. Another set of WT and MT-I/II-deficient mice (n = 6 for both groups) received only dorsal column lesions. At 5 weeks after surgery, 2 l of 1% cholera toxin B (CTB; List Biological) was injected into the right sciatic nerve, and the animals were transcardially perfused with 4% (PFA) 3 days later. Spinal cord sections were immunostained using goat anti-CTB antibody (1:2000; List Biological), …

Induction of EAE:

DR*1501-Tg and DR*1502-Tg mice were screened for the expression of the HLA marker by flow cytometry [30]. Mice between 8 and 12 weeks of age were immunized s.c. at four sites on the flanks with 0.2 ml of an emulsion of 200 µg immunogenic peptide and complete Freunds adjuvant containing 400 µg of heat-killed Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37RA [30] (Difco, Detroit, MI). In addition, mice were given Pertussis toxin (Ptx) from List Biological Laboratories (Campbell, CA) on days 0 and 2 post-immunization (75 and 200 ng per mouse, respectively). …
