Experimental amyotrophic leukospongiosis (ALSP) has first been reproduced in 2 squirrel monkeys 16 and 23 months after inoculation of the animals with a brain suspension from the patient who had died of this disease. From the brain cell cultures of the monkeys a hemadsorbing agent was isolated which induced cell proliferation and was inhibited by the antisera from patients with ALSP.
