About 50% of the mononuclear cells in the perivascular lesions in the central nervous system (CNS) of rats suffering from experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) are blood-borne macrophages. In this study we investigated the role of these macrophages in different variants of EAE, using a liposome-mediated macrophage depletion technique. Intravenously injected liposomes containing dichloromethylene diphosphonate (Cl2MDP) are ingested by macrophages and cause temporary and selective elimination of these cells. Macrophage depletion during EAE induced by a T cell line specific for myelin basic protein (MBP; T cell-EAE) suppresses development of neurological signs of EAE. T cell-EAE with pronounced demyelination as induced by an additionally injected MoAb directed against myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) was also significantly ameliorated after macrophage depletion. During chronic relapsing EAE (CR-EAE) the occurrence of relapses was prevented or suppressed, provided that the liposomes were injected before the initiation of a putative relapse. A chronic progressive course of CR-EAE was not modified by Cl2MDP containing liposome treatment. Histologic examination of the CNS of liposome-treated animals confirmed decreased infiltration of macrophages into the parenchyma in the rats with T cell and AD-EAE, whereas T cells were still present.
