Often expressed as a percentage but could be expressed as a ratio. EAE is an animal model of brain inflammation in which inflammation is induced through immunization of the animal with central nervous system antigens or by the passive transfer of autoreactive T cells. Acute EAE is a variant of EAE having a short, monophasic timecourse of symptoms which are usually severe, followed by complete and stable recovery.
