Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a model for human multiple sclerosis, is a T cell-mediated autoimmune disease that can be induced in experimental animals by immunization with myelin Ags. Inbred strains of mice show varying degrees of

To understand and develop strategies to intervene in autoimmune responses to myelin proteolipid protein (PLP), encephalitogenic epitopes must be identified. To expedite the identification of potentially immunogenic and encephalitogenic epitopes of PL

Previously, six T cell clones, which are specific for an encephalitogenic determinant of myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) peptide residues 139 to 151 (HSLGKWLGHPDKF), were derived from SJL mice and shown to use diverse TCR genes. To design TCR antago

We previously described a synthetic peptide of myelin proteolipid protein (PLP), peptide 139-151, which induces experimental allergic encephalomyelitis in SJL/J (H-2s) mice. We have now identified an additional determinant, PLP residues 178-191, that

Proteolipid protein (PLP) is the major protein of central nervous system myelin. SJL (H-2s) mice immunized with a synthetic peptide corresponding to PLP residues 139-151 develop acute EAE. In this study, 6 IAs-restricted, CD4+, TCR alpha beta-bearing

To determine if the Ag that induces an autoimmune disease influences parental MHC haplotype molecule expression in situ in MHC heterozygotes, acute experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) was induced with different encephalitogenic peptides in

The hydrophobic myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) contains covalently bound long-chain fatty acids which are attached to intracellular cysteine residues via thioester linkages. To gain insight into the role of acylation in the structure and function o

This review is a personal memoir of the history of proteolipids and is limited to aspects of the field with which the author has been involved in one way or another. The discovery of proteolipids was a serendipitous observation made in the course of

Myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) contains 2 immunodominant encephalitogenic epitopes in SJL mice, namely PLP residues 139-151 and 178-191. DM20, a minor isoform of PLP, lacks residues 116-150 and consequently contains only the single major encephalit
