A double mutation of MBP83-99 peptide induces IL-4 responses and antagonizes IFN-? responses

A number of treatment options are available to multiple sclerosis patients, however this needs to be improved. Herein, we designed and synthesized a number of peptides by mutating principal TCR contact residues based on MBP83-99 peptide epitope. Immunization of SJL/J mice with MBP83-99 and mutant [A...
