leflunomide and Allergic Encephalomyelitis

leflunomide has been researched along with Allergic Encephalomyelitis in 1 studies

Leflunomide: An isoxazole derivative that inhibits dihydroorotate dehydrogenase, the fourth enzyme in the pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway. It is used an immunosuppressive agent in the treatment of RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS and PSORIATIC ARTHRITIS.
leflunomide : A monocarboxylic acid amide obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of 5-methyl-1,2-oxazole-4-carboxylic acid with the anilino group of 4-(trifluoromethyl)aniline. The prodrug of teriflunomide.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Here, we investigated the efficacy of leflunomide and its mode of action in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), which is a T helper cell type 1 cell-borne disease model to simulate inflammatory aspects of multiple sclerosis and was induced in Lewis rats by adoptive transfer of myelin basic protein (MBP)-specific T line cells."3.72Modulation of effector cell functions in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis by leflunomide--mechanisms independent of pyrimidine depletion.
