  1. CWM: Control white matter, Remyelinated: Remyelinated lesion, Demyelinated: Demyelinated inactive lesion, Active: Demyelinated active lesion, Re/CWM and De/Re ratio: Remyelinated vs. control white matter and vs. demyelinated inactive lesions, respectively; p value were calculated by 2-sided U tests, unadjusted for multiple testing. p-values < 0.05 are printed in bold. Specimens analyzed: Six normal white matter specimens from 4 subjects, 6 demyelinated inactive lesions from 4 subjects, 4 demyelinated active lesions from 3 subjects, and 4 remyelinated lesions from 3 subjects were dissected and used for qPCR analysis. The mean expression values are given as % GAPDH; SEM denotes standard error of the mean.
