Normal myelination of regenerating peripheral nerve sprouts despite circulating antibodies to galactocerebroside in
Rabbits were immunized with galactocerebroside and a crush lesion was created in the tibial nerve before the onset of experimental allergic neuritis. Normal regeneration and myelination of distal peripheral nerve sprouts occurred and was identical to that of controls, although circulating antigalactocerebroside antibodies were present and nerve roots showed typical signs of beginning experimental allergic neuritis.
