Figure 1.

Clinical assessment of EAE. Clinical signs (n = 7 mice/group) were daily monitored, comparing B₂^-/- (▼) and WT (■) mice during 18 days after EAE induction (A) and body weight gain or loss (B). Data is expressed as mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05 for B₂^-/- versus WT on the peak of disease (day 14 post-induction).
