Mannosylation of mutated MBP83-99 peptides diverts immune responses from Th1 to Th2

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune demyelinating disease mediated primarily by CD4+ T cells. The design of peptide mutants of disease-associated myelin epitopes to alter immune responses offers a promising avenue for the treatment of MS. We designed and synthesized a number of peptide analogs...
