abstract：:The mechanism of antibody-mediated central nervous system (CNS) demyelination in vivo was studied using rabbit eyes. Injection of anti-galactocerebroside (Gal C) antiserum alone into the normal rabbit vitreous body induced demyelination in the epiretinal myelinated fibers. This activity of the antiserum disappeared af...
