The Significance of Measles Virus Antigen and Genome Distribution in the CNS in SSPE for Mechanisms of Viral Spread and Demyelination
1 Apr 1996
Abstract excerpt
The distribution of measles virus (MV) antigen and genomic RNA in the central nervous system (CNS) in 10 cases of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) was determined using optimized immunocytochemistry and in situ hybridization techniques. As in previous reports neurons and oligodendrocytes were found to be the most frequently infected cells. It was confirmed that MV infection in neuronal processes was...
