英文摘要 | Maintaining a constant number and ratio of immune cells is one critical aspect of the tight regulation of immune homeostasis. Breakdown of this balance will lead to autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS). The antiepileptic drug valproic acid (VPA) was reported to regulate the growth, survival, and differentiation of many cells. However, its function in T cell homeostasis and MS treatment remains unknown. In this study, VPA was found to reduce spinal cord inflammation, demyelination, and disease scores in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, a mouse model of MS. Further study indicated that VPA induces apoptosis in activated T cells and maintains the immune homeostasis. This effect was found to be mainly mediated by the caspase-8/caspase-3 pathway. Interestingly, this phenomenon was also confirmed in T cells from normal human subjects and MS patients. Considering the long history of clinical use and our new findings, we believe VPA might be a safe and effective therapy for autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis. |
