Description ST266 is the biological secretome of Amnion-derived Multipotent Progenitor (AMP) cells. ST266 proteins accumulate in eyes and optic nerves following intranasal delivery, resulting in selective suppression of optic neuritis in the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model of multiple sclerosis, without suppressing spinal cord lesions. We tested the hypothesis that systemic AMP cell administration could suppress both optic neuritis and myelitis in EAE.
