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
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
