Calnexin increases number of immune cells crossing blood-brain barrier

Researchers in Canada have reported that brain tissue from people with MS contains high levels of a protein called calnexin. Mice lacking calnexin were found to be completely resistant to developing the mouse model of MS (EAE). The blood-brain barrier limits the number of immune cells crossing from the blood into brain tissue; it is thought that calnexin makes it easier for cells to cross this barrier into brain tissue. The researchers plan to examine in detail how calnexin affects the blood-brain barrier with a view to identifying a new target for MS therapies.
