Abstract
Adherence of lymphocytes from multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and control subjects to cells persistently infected by measles and control cells was studied. No statistically significant difference between MS patients and controls could be found in this test. Lymphocytes adhered more readily to cells infected by measles than to control cells. The cell to cell contacts are made by the tips of the microvillii of the Lu cells. Das Haften der Lymphocyten von Multiple-Sklerose-Patienten und Kontrollfällen an dauernd mit Masernvirus infizierten Zellen und an Kontrollzellen wurde studiert. Es wurde hierbei kein statistisch signifikanter Unterschied im Verhalten der Lymphocyten von MS-Patienten und Kontrollfällen festgestellt. Die Lymphocyten haften leichter an den Maserninfizierten Zellen als an Kontrollzellen. Der Kontakt zwischen den Zellen wird durch die Mikrovilli der Lu-Zellen hergestellt.Keywords
