Neurological deficits caused by tissue hypoxia in neuroinflammatory disease

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

We present chemical, physical, immunohistochemical, and therapeutic evidence that functional deficits caused by neuroinflammation can arise from tissue hypoxia, consistent with an energy crisis in inflamed central nervous system tissue. The neurological deficit was closely correlated with spinal white and gray matter hypoxia. This realization may indicate new avenues for therapy of neuroinflammatory diseases such as MS.
