  • Title: An unusual intranuclear structure (? viral nucleocapsid) in the brain in subacute sclerosing panencephalitis.
    Author: Dayan AD, Majumdar S, Hughes W, Heathfield KW.
    Journal: J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry; 1974 Feb; 37(2):201-6. PubMed ID: 4594797.
    Abstract:
    A brain biopsy was examined from a 7 year old boy with subacute sclerosing panencephalitis. Intranuclear deposits of measles antigens were demonstrated in parenchymal cells by immunofluorescence. Electron microscopy showed viral nucleocapsids in nucleoliform inclusions and unusual rod-like intranuclear structures which resemble structures previously described only in tissue cultures infected with measles virus.
