This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

Oh, my... I laughed. I snorted. I squealed with laughter.

I like the EAE model. The thinking goes like this:

1. MS might be an autoimmune disease;
2. Let's create an artificial autoimmune disease in mice and call it EAE;
3. EAE looks a bit like MS;
4. Therefore, MS is an autoimmune disease.

See? It all makes perfect sense. I can think of several diseases we could cure this way.

Nobody can deny that his line of thinking has been successful. Scientists have developed over 100 treatments for the disease, all of which are extremely effective. In fact, I'd say we've pretty much cured EAE.

I just don't know what you people are complaining about.
