| Abstract | The contribution of peripheral macrophage was assessed in cuprizone intoxication, a model of demyelination and remyelination in which the blood-brain barrier remains intact. Flow cytometry of brain cells isolated from cuprizone-treated mice revealed an increase in the percentage of Mac-1(+)/CD45(hi) peripheral macrophage. To confirm these results in situ, C57BL/6 mice were lethally irradiated, transplanted with bone marrow from GFP-transgenic mice, and exposed to cuprizone. GFP(+) peripheral macrophages were seen in the CNS after 2 weeks of treatment, and infiltration continued through 6 weeks. While the peripheral macrophages were far outnumbered by the resident microglia, their recruitment across the blood-brain barrier alludes to a potentially important role. |
