Bioactivity | MBP Ac1-9 refers to a peptide fragment of myelin basic protein (MBP). MBP Ac1-9 is an immunodominant epitope in the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model, which can induce T cell immune response and lead to pathological changes similar to multiple sclerosis. MBP Ac1-9 can be used to study T cell activation and autoimmune response[1]. |
