This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a synthetic gallic acid (GA) derivative in the
central nervous system (CNS) autoimmunity, i.e. in experimental autoimmune
encephalomyelitis (EAE), an animal model of multiple sclerosis. EAE was induced in DA
rats by injection of autologous spinal cord homogenate, with a gallic acid derivative being
applied subcutaneously (20 mg/kg, day 7-22 post-immunization). GA derivative
ameliorated EAE. Cells from lymph nodes draining the site of immunization (DLNC),
isolated in the inductive phase of the disease, and spinal cord immune cells (SCIC),
isolated at the peak of disease, were exposed to GA derivative in vitro. Encephalitogenic
cytokines, interferon (IFN)-γ and interleukin (IL)-17, were decreased in SCIC and DLNC
under the influence of GA derivative. The proportion of IL-17-producing CD4+ T cells was
reduced in SCIC (flow cytometry). Treatment of microglial BV2 cells with GA derivative
led to inhibition of NO, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor release. These results imply that
the synthesized GA derivative is a potent immunomodulator, able to ameliorate EAE. Its
effects on the CNS autoimmunity are related to the inhibition of encephalitogenic T cells
and macrophage/microglia activity in our study.
