Bound and free light chains in subacute sclerosing panencephalitis and multiple sclerosis serum and cerebrospinal fluid.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The kappa-lambda light chain ratios, the presence of free light chains and the double ring formation, with antikappa and antilambda serum, in single radial immunodiffusion were investigated in serum and cerebrospinal fluid of patients with subacute sclerosing panencephalitis. Cerebrospinal fluid samples of several multiple sclerosis cases were considered simultaneously. The results obtained suggest special immunoglobulin synthesis in both diseases.

Immunoglobulin G subclass antibodies to measles virus in patients with subacute sclerosing panencephalitis or multiple sclerosis.
Mouse monoclonal antibodies specific for human immunoglobulin G (IgG) subclasses and a sensitive immunoassay were used to evaluate the IgG subclass antibody response to measles virus antigens in cerebrospinal fluid and serum samples from 20 patients with subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE), 12 patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), and 11 controls with high measles virus antibody titers ...
متن کاملMeasles virus antibody in cerebrospinal fluids from patients with multiple sclerosis.
A strong measles-specific gel precipitation reaction was found in the cerebrospinal fluid (C.S.F.) of two patients with multiple sclerosis (M.S.) (total of 15 tested). The serum and C.S.F. specimens from these two patients were tested for measles antibody by six assay methods. The results were compared with those obtained from serum and C.S.F. specimens of a patient with subacute sclerosing pan...
متن کاملCellular and humoral immunity in subacute sclerosing panencephalitis.
Cellular and humoral immunity was studied in 26 patients with subacute sclerosing panencephalitis. Results were compared with those of 14 normal controls and 11 patients suffering from other neurological disorders. It was shown that cellular and humoral immune responses are adequate in subacute sclerosing panencephalitis. The persistently elevated levels of serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) and IgA ...
متن کاملMeasles immunoglobulins in subacute sclerosing panencephalitis.
Normal responses of measles specific immunoglobulins M and G (IgM and IgG) were defined in 10 children with measles. Abnormal responses of measles IgM and IgG were found in both sera and cerebrospinal fluids from three cases of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis. In two patients the serum titres of measles IgM and IgG were abnormally high. The measles IgM was present during prolonged illnesses...
متن کاملHigh-dose intravenous ribavirin therapy for subacute sclerosing panencephalitis.
Two patients with subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) were treated safely and effectively with high doses of intravenous ribavirin combined with intraventricular alpha interferon. The ribavirin concentrations maintained in the serum and cerebrospinal fluid were higher than those which inhibit SSPE virus replication in vitro and in vivo.
