Neuroinflammation creates an immune regulatory niche at the meningeal lymphatic vasculature near the cribriform plate
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We report the use of single cell RNA sequencing of meningeal lymphatic endothelial cells near the cribriform plate in both naïve mice, and during experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a mouse model of multiple sclerosis. By sorting for meningeal lymphatics near the cribriform plate, we identified that these lymphatic endothelial cells acquire an altered phenotype during neuroinflammation, where they become enriched in genes involved in leukocyte crosstalk including adhesion molecules, antigen processing and presentation, and tolerance, thus becoming a unique site of immune regulation.
