Table 1. Development of EAE.
Group | Incidence | Day of disease onset | Maximum clinical score | Score>3 |
---|---|---|---|---|
Wild type | 14 of 14(100%) | 15.0±0.9 | 3.1 (±0.4) | 9 of 14 |
heterozygote | 14 of 15(93.3%) | 14.2±0.4 | 2.4 (±0.3) | 7 of 15 |
Gαq-KO | 4 of 5(80%) | 11.5±0.3 | 1.1 (±0.4)* | 0 of 5 |
Development of MOG35–55-induced EAE. Incidence reflects the number of mice that developed EAE relative to the total mice in a group; Day of disease onset is presented in days (mean±s.e.m.); Maximum clinical score is the average of the highest score reached by each mouse in a group (mean±SEM.); Score>3 shows the number of mice achieving an EAE score of greater than 3 relative to the total mice in a group. *P<0.05, versus wild type (Student’s t-test).
