Forty-five serum samples from 31 newborns and infants with the congenital rubella syndrome (CRS) were tested by immunoprecipitation to determine their antibody spectra to each of the structural proteins of rubella virus. Most sera (37/ 45) contained little or no E2 protein-specific antibody, but som

Age-matched serum and cerebrospinal fluid from 20 multiple sclerosis patients and 20 control patients with other neurological diseases were examined for antibodies to radiolabeled measles virus and canine distemper virus using an immunoprecipitation polyacrylamide gel technique.

## Abstract Oligodendrocyteβspecific protein (OSP) is concentrated in CNS myelin and is a potential autoantigen in the development of multiple sclerosis (MS). We performed proliferation assays with lymphocytes from MS patients and normal controls. OSP peptideβinduced proliferation was common in rel
T cell lines and clones specific for human myelin basic protein (BP) were selected from three multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and two healthy subjects and tested for their proliferative responses to a battery of synthetic peptides, 9 to 21 amino acid residues long. The combined amino acid sequence
In order to explore the T-cell repertoire to myelin basic protein (BP) of both multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and healthy subjects (HS), we raised BP reactive T-cell lines from blood mononuclear cells of eight MS patients and five HS. These lines were triggered in vitro by human BP. When analyzing
