Suppression of Chronic Allergic Encephalomyelitis: Relevance to Multiple Sclerosis

Abstract
The expression of chronic relapsing experimental allergic encephalomyelitis in strain 13 guinea pigs was suppressed with a single series of injections of myelin basic protein in incomplete Freund's adjuvant. The suppression appeared permanent, and subsequent rechallenge with central nervous system antigen failed to elicit exacerbations.
