Fecha de publicación: | 2021 | Editor: | National Institutes of Health (U.S.). PubMed Central | Resumen: | The need for remyelinating drugs is essential for healing disabling diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS). One of the reasons for the lack of this class of therapies is the impossibility to monitor remyelination in vivo, which is of utmost importance to perform effective clinical trials. Here, we show how optical coherence tomography (OCT), a cheap and non-invasive technique commonly used in ophthalmology, may be used to assess remyelination in vivo in MS patients. Our pioneer approach validates OCT as a technique to study remyelination of the optic nerve and reflects what is occurring in non-accessible central nervous system (CNS) structures, like the spinal cord. In this study we used the orally bioavailable small molecule VP3.15, confirming its therapeutical potential as a neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and probably remyelinating drug for MS. Altogether, our results confirm the usefulness of OCT to monitor the efficacy of remyelinating therapies in vivo and underscore the relevance of VP3.15 as a potential disease modifying drug for MS therapy | Versión del editor: | http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/ijms22052440 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/250359 | DOI: | 10.3390/ijms22052440 | Identificadores: | doi: 10.3390/ijms22052440 issn: 1661-6596 |
