Efficient presentation of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein peptides but not protein by astrocytes from HLA-DR2 and HLA-DR4 transgenic mice.
The role of astrocytes in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS) is not well understood. Astrocytes may modulate the activity of pathogenic T cells by presenting myelin antigens in combination with pro- or anti-inflammatory signals.
