  • Title: [Isolation and analysis of encephalitogenic fractions of spinal cord proteins].
    Author: Zhitnukhin IuL, Pleskov VM.
    Journal: Vopr Med Khim; 1978; 24(1):57-62. PubMed ID: 78578.
    Abstract:
    Main encephalitogenic protein was isolated from bovine medulla spinalis and separated into homogenous polypeptide fractions by gel filtration; some of these fractions had the high encephalitogenic activity. The main protein and its fractions, possessing the encephalitogenic activity, caused a development of cross-reacting antibodies and a sensitization to intracutaneous administration of encephalitogenic preparations in animals. Non-encephalitogenic main protein sensitized animals only to this protein and did not induce the formation of distinct amount of antibodies. The amino acid composition of the encephalitogenic polypeptide is exhibited.
