In this study, we investigated the expression of the C5aR in spinal cords of Lewis rats with experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE). Using in situ hybridization (ISH) we analyzed the kinetics of C5aR at different time points of EAE (preclinical stage, clinical peak, remission phase). We observed that C5aR mRNA was readily detected in the CNS of EAE rats at all the stages of the disease. Using a combination of ISH and immunohistochemistry, we formally demonstrated that C5aR is strongly expressed on microglial cells and hypertrophic astrocytes during EAE. The potential involvement of C5a receptor in EAE physiopathology is discussed.
