__Objectives:__ The immunological effect of CD30 on dendritic cells (DCs) was examined in a comparative study of patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). The patients were divided into two groups on the basis of interferon (IFN)β-1a treatment: IFNβ-1a-treated patients and untreat
