Abstract
Administration of niridazole to Lewis rats beginning 2 days before sensitization with guinea pig spinal cord in combination with immunologic adjuvants exerted a dose related suppressive influence on development of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE). A daily dose of 75 mg/kg completely prevented clinical neurologic signs as well as markedly suppressed occurrence of immunohistopathologic manifestations of this autoimmune disease. A higher daily dose level of niridazole, i.e., 100 mg/k, also inhibited EAE but was associated with neurotoxic manifestations.
