Transferred cells: 1 × 106 interferon‐γ (IFN‐γ) ‐deficient MOG35–55‐specific CD4+ T cells (IFN‐γ−/−) were administered at the start of the experiment then either 5 or 23 days later mice received 5 × 106 wild‐type MOG35–55‐specific CD4+ T cells (WT) or 5 × 106 wild‐type ovalbumin‐specific CD4+ T cells (OVA) (where MOG35–55 is a peptide comprising amino acids 35 to 55 of the myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein).
(Peak CS ± SD): The mean peak clincial score and standard deviations for each group are shown.
