Abstract excerpt
Multiple sclerosis, a demyelinating disease of the human central nervous system occurs in genetically susceptible individuals through a presumably autoimmune mechanism directed against the myelin sheath. The influence of the major histocompatibility locus on T cell recognition of myelin basic protein (MBP), a suspected target autoantigen, was investigated by analyzing MBP-specific T cell clones generated from the...
