Cuprizone, EAE, and pertussis toxin injections

Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) was induced as previously described [56,57,58]. Briefly, emulsion of equal volumes of CFA and 100 µg myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein peptide (MOG35–55, MEVGWYRSPFSRVVHLYRNGK) supplemented with M. tuberculosis H37Ra (5 mg/mL, Difco, Detroit, MI) were injected subcutaneously in the scapular region of each mouse. MOG–CFA mixture was emulsified by sonication using a sonic dismembrator (Fisherbrand; FB705). Pertussis toxin (200 ng/mouse, i.p.; List Biological Laboratories) was injected on the days 0 and 2 relative to immunization. …

EAE Induction and Assessment

EAE was triggered using a four-point paraspinal subcutaneous injection of an emulsion containing
complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA) (0.05 mL, Sigma, St Louis, USA), myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein
(MOG) 35 − 55 peptide (250 µg, Peptide Biotechnology, Nanjing, China), 0.05 mL of sterilized saline and
Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra (4 mg/mL, Difco Laboratories, Detroit, USA); subsequently, pertussis
toxin (500 ng, List Biological, CA, USA) was given through intraperitoneal injection and again the same amount was injected after 48 h. …
