The expression of perforin (P) in subpopulations of the PBL of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients in stable and active phase of disease was investigated, by simultaneous detection of P (intracellular molecule) and cell surface antigens. A significant increase of CD4+P+ (p < 0.02) and CD16+P+ (p < 0.001), and decrease of CD56+P+ (p < 0.05) cells in active MS was found. In active disease there is a highly significant...
