Spinal cord recovered from therapeutic OM-MOG mice after 5 injections of OM-MOG showed increased expression of myelin (Mbp) and neuronal (Snap25) marker genes compared to vehicle controls and importantly, significantly increased expression compared to untreated mice at onset, suggesting that OM-MOG actively promotes both myelin and neuron recovery (Figure 3E). This evidence concerns the gene SNAP25 and ocular melanoma.
