Deskripsi
Susac syndrome is an inflammatory pathology of the brain endothelium. Here the authors show that the pathology is driven by CD8 T cells attacking the endothelium, and that blocking T cell-endothelial adhesion ameliorates the disease in a mouse model, and associates with improved clinical score in 4 patients.
