Allergic encephalomyelitis was produced by immunizing Lewis rats with 2.5 µg of Kies protein emulsified with Freund's complete adjuvant. Peritoneal cells were harvested 10 to 14 days after immunization. Harvested cells from specifically immunized rats were compared for cytopathic effect with equal numbers of control nonspecifically sensitized peritoneal cells. Cytopathic effect was measured by interacting lymphoid cells with HeLa or L cells, which had been grown in the presence of14C thymidine and subsequently "coated" with a solution of Kies protein...
