Abstract

Intravenous administration of mouse myelin basic protein covalently coupled with chromic chloride to syngeneic spleen cells (MBP-SC) prevents the subsequent induction of experimental allergic encephalitis (EAE). Whereas 1 in 28 mice receiving MBP-SC developed EAE after immunization with mouse spinal cord homogenate (MSCH) and adjuvants, 16 out of 25 mice receiving ovalbumin-coupled spleen cells (OA-SC) had EAE following encephalitogenic challenge. The effect of administration of antigen-coupled spleen cells on in vitro proliferation responses is shown.
