Iron accumulates in the CNS age - dependently (Stephenson 10173 ] We next set out to investigate the effect of clomip et al ., 2014 ) and iron deposition concomitant with T cell ramine in chronic EAE .

Clomip through oxidative stress , eventually leading to neurodegen ramine did not affect the severity of the second relapse when eration (Friese et al. , 2014 ) . Targeting iron is thus considered initiated in mice at remission ( FIG . 10a ), likely because a promising therapeutic approach in progressive multiple substantial neural injury had already occurred from a pro sclerosis .
