Multiple sclerosis (MS) is associated with the appearance of autoreactive T cells in the central nervous system. Using a mouse model of MS, Arima et al. now show that this attack begins at a specific spinal cord location. T cell entry into the CNS is regulated by a reflex neural circuit originating from leg muscle contractions.
多发性硬化症(MS)与中枢神经系统中自身反应性 T 细胞的出现有关。Arima 等人在 MS 的小鼠模型中表明,这种攻击始于特定的脊髓位置。T 细胞进入中枢神经系统受到源自腿部肌肉收缩的反射神经回路的调节。
