Experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) is a model of central nervous system (CNS) inflammation that follows immunization with certain CNS antigens. The course and clinical manifestations of EAE are similar to those of multiple sclerosis ( MS) in humans; therefore, EAE has become an accepted animal model to study MS. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that systemic expression of murine interferon-beta (IFN-beta) (MuIFN-beta), following intramuscular (i.m.) delivery of plasmid DNA encoding MuIFN-beta to the hind limb of mice, is effective in reducing the clinical manifestations of disease in a model of EAE. The results of the study demonstrate that gene-based delivery of MuIFN-beta caused significantly decreased clinical scores compared with delivery of the null vector. A single injection of the MuIFN-beta plasmid was as effective in reducing the severity of the disease as an every other day injection of MuIFN-beta protein.
