Studies in multiple sclerosis have demonstrated that normal-appearing white matter can harbor pathological changes. Here we investigated the effects of neuroinflammation, modeled by experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) on neural stem/progenitor cells (NPCs) located distally to inflammatory foci. We observed that EAE-derived NPCs had a lower capacity to differentiate into oligodendrocytes and an increased neuronal differentiation than control NPCs. This finding was corroborated with changes in gene expression of early differentiation genes. We conclude that inflammation has a long range effect on the NPCs in the diseased central nervous system, reaching NPC populations outside the lesion sites. (C) 2015 The Authors.
