This is supported by studies in mice with experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), an animal model of multiple sclerosis, where mTNF has been associated with repair and remyelination via oligodendroglial TNFR2 [27], whereas the detrimental effects of solTNF have been associated with TNFR1 signaling [8, 28]. Here, TNFRSF1B is linked to experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.
