✦ Synopsis

Serum and cerebrospinal fluid of patients with multiple sclerosis, subacute sclerosing panencephalitis and other neurological disease have been tested by the indirect fluorescent antibody method for immunoglobulin M specific for measles. Only sera of three patients were positive. This feature is of little statistical importance. Nevertheless the authors emphasize the role of a possible viral infection in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis.

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from 105 patients was analyzed by radioimmunoassay for the presence of material cross-reactive with peptide 89-169 of bovine myelin basic protein (BP). In a group of 72 multiple sclerosis patients, 52 showed higher BP content than the control group, i.e. more than 2 ng/ml C
