Human inflammatory disease, multiple sclerosis (MS), is a demyelinating disease of central nervous system (CNS). The experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is the most commonly used as experimental model because of its key pathological features' approximation of MS. The interaction between complex elements in immune system and in the CNS determines the MS pathogenesis. However, there is no cure for MS and the treatment for MS still encounters great challenges. Thus, finding a more effective disease-modifying treatment is imminent. In the present study, we investigated whether 9,10-Anhydrodehydroartemisin (ADART), a compound derived from artemisinin, could decrease demyelination in EAE and the underlying mechanisms. In established EAE mice, 100 mg/kg 9,10-Anhydrodehydroartemisinin (ADART) effectively reduced CNS and peripheral immune system infiltration inflammatory cells including CD4(+) IFN-gamma(+) Th1 cells and CD4(+) IL-17A(+) Th17 cells. Correspondingly, the serum level of IFN-gamma and IL-17A was also reduced. In vitro, ADART almost completely inhibited Th17 differentiation, and partially inhibited Th1 differentiation in 10 mu M. This research revealed that ADART could be a great promising avenue among current therapies for MS.
