Cytokine/Adhesion Molecule Expression in the Brain Etty (Tika) Benveniste, Ph.D--Regulation of
Cytokine/Adhesion Molecule Expression in the Brain We are studying how cytokines regulate expression of adhesion molecules and class II MHC antigens in glial cells (astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, microglia), and how these molecules contribute to CNS diseases such as multiple sclerosis and AIDS dementia complex.
