MS symptoms include walking difficulties, visual weakening, as well as learning and memory impairment, thus affecting the quality of the patient’s life. Chemokines and chemokine receptors are expressed on the immune cells as well as the CNS resident cells. Several sets of chemokine receptors and their ligands tend to be pathogenic players in MS, including CCL2, CCL3, CCL4, CCL5, CCL7, CCL8, CCL11, CCL17, CCL19, CCL21, CCL22, CXCL1, CXCL8, CXCL9, CXCL10, CXCL11, and CXCL16. Furthermore, current modulatory drugs that are used in the treatment of MS and its animal model, the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), affect the expression of several chemokine and chemokine receptors. In this review, we highlight the pathogenic roles of chemokines and their receptors as well as utilizing them as potential therapeutic targets through selective agents, such as specific antibodies and receptor blockers, or indirectly through MS or EAE immunomodulatory drugs.Keywords: multiple sclerosis, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, chemokines, chemokine receptorsDhaiban SAl-Ani MElemam NMMaghazachi AADove Medical Pressarticlemultiple sclerosisexperimental autoimmune encephalomyelitischemokineschemokines receptors.PathologyRB1-214Therapeutics.
