                    In-vivo Model To establish experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) mice, female C57BL/6 mice were actively immunized using two subcutaneous injections with an emulsion containing myelin MOG35-55 (250 g) and an equal volume of CFA (250 g) into dierent sites of each hind ank.
                    Experimental
                    Result(s)
They reduced the clinical and pathological defects in EAE mice through modulation of both local (microglia) and systemic (lymphocytes and blood) immunity from inflammatory (Th1/Th17/M1) towards anti-inflammatory (Th2/Treg/M2) phenotypes.

                    In-vivo Model Animals received yohimbine (2 mg/kg) 30 min prior to administration of imipramine(20 mg/kg) (Y + I group) or received vehicle treatment (Ctl group), once a day for seven consecutive days in adult male Wistar rats (250-400 g, 2-3 months of age) and adult male nestin-GFP transgenic mice (25-35 g, 2-3 months of age).
                    Experimental
                    Result(s)
Yohimbine and Imipramine combination treatment enhanced the quiescent neural progenitor pool in the hippocampal neurogenic niche similar to ECS, and distinct from chronic imipramine treatment.
