The histoenzymic pattern of oxidative enzymes (G3PD, IDH, SD, G6PD,HBD, NADPH: dehydrogenase) was investigated in experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) produced in rats according to PATERSON [13]. The results obtained lead to following conclusions: (1) The neuroglia, including the white matter oligodendroglia of immunized rats, exhibits increased oxidoreductase activities; (2) The neuroallergic reaction induces some stimulation of the oxidoreductive metabolism of oligoden-droglia; (3) The enzymatic hyperactivity in EAE does not show any relation to the morphological signs of alterations of the myelin sheath.
