Serial studies of serum interleukin-2 in chronic progressive multiple sclerosis patients: occurrence of 'bursts' and effect of cyclosporine.

abstract：:Lewis (LEW) and DA rats are highly susceptible to experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) induced with guinea pig myelin basic protein (MBP), but respond to different epitopes. The dominant epitope for LEW rats is MBP73-86, and disease is mediated primarily by Vbeta8.2 Th1 cells. DA rats lack conventional Vbet...
