The possible role of antibodies to galactocerebroside was investigated in AS rats with experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) induced by guinea-pig spinal cord. Passive immunization with rat or rabbit antiserum to galactocerebroside did not protect rats from EAE. Active immunization with galactocerebroside before the encephalitogenic challenge produced antibody to galactocerebroside but also failed to protect rats from EAE. These experiments did not support previous suggestions that antibodies to galactocerebroside are protective.
在由豚鼠脊髓诱导产生实验性变应性脑脊髓炎(EAE)的AS大鼠中,研究了抗半乳糖脑苷脂抗体的可能作用。用大鼠或兔抗半乳糖脑苷脂抗血清进行被动免疫并不能保护大鼠免受EAE侵害。在致脑炎攻击前用半乳糖脑苷脂进行主动免疫产生了抗半乳糖脑苷脂抗体,但同样未能保护大鼠免受EAE侵害。这些实验不支持先前关于抗半乳糖脑苷脂抗体具有保护作用的观点。
