| Description |
Optic neuritis, demyelinating optic nerve inflammation, often occurs in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and their axons also occurs in optic neuritis, and correlates with permanent vision loss. ST266 is a novel biologic mixture of growth factors and cytokines secreted from Amnion-derived Multipotent Progenitor (AMP) cells, that exhibits anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties in a variety of disease models. The ability of ST266 to suppress optic neuritis in the EAE model of MS was examined. |
