Methylene blue potentiates stimulus-evoked fMRI responses and cerebral oxygen consumption during normoxia and hypoxia
This study explores the neuroprotective effects of methylene blue (MB) in rats with experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a model for multiple sclerosis. The results showed that MB treatment reduced inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in the brain and spinal cord, significantly improving neurological function. The mechanism of action involves the
