Competitive inhibition of binding between radioiodine-labelled encephalitogenic basic
protein from human myelin (125 I-HEProt) and normal human alpha-2 macroglobulin and …

Recent attempts to detect the presence of antibody to encephalitogenic basic protein in
multiple sclerosis have generally been unsuccessful. The utilization of a new system of …

The binding capacity of human and rabbit serum and serum fractions for [125 I]
encephalitogenic basic protein, extracted from human brain, were determined by gel …

Materials and Methods Sera from 20 cases of acute MS, 8 of chronic MS and 32 patients
suffering from other neurological diseases were studied. The normal control group (24) …

Myelin basic protein (MBP) was measured in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples using a
specific and sensitive radioimmunoassay (1.5 to 2.5 ng/ml). A moderate non-parallelism …

Specific antibodies to a basic protein that is a component of myelin were demonstrated
quantitatively by gel filtration radioimmunoassay in three species, rabbit, guinea pig and rat …

Human encephalitogenic basic protein (HEP) was obtained in high yield after
chromatography on sulfoethyl-Sephadex C-50 (SE-Sephadex). The protein was shown to be …

A sensitive gel filtration redioimmunoassay was used to test for antibodies to the basic
protein of myelin, the antigen of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, in serum and …

• Serum and CSF levels of myelin basic protein (MBP) were measured in 50 patients with
encephalitis of various origins and severity. In nearly 50%, the CSF samples were found to …

Immuno-electron microscopic studies of the localization of encephalitogenic basic protein
demonstrate its presence in the major dense line of the myelin sheath. Staining could only …
