Abstract:
Twenty-five patients with chronic progressing multiple sclerosis were examined for the content of beta-endorphin in blood serum, supernatants of activated lymphocytes and CSF by RIA. At the same time the parameters of cellular immunity were appraised. Different relations were discovered between cellular immunity and the content of beta-endorphin in biological fluids which may play a material part in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis.
