    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Zur Ermittlung der Wertigkeit von als Tests für die Multiple Sklerose (MS) vorgeschlagenen Verfahren wurde die Reaktivität der Leukozyten gegenüber einer Antigenpräparation aus dem Blut von Patienten mit einer MS (MS-bedingte Substanz — MSRM) im Leukozyten-Adhärenz-Inhibitions-(LAI) Test untersucht. Die Ergebnisse lassen auf die Existenz einer antigenen Substanz im Blut von MS-Patienten schließen. Mit dem modifizierten LAI-Test, unter Zusatz von Kälberserum, ergibt sich eine signifikante Reaktion der Leukozyten der MS-Fälle gegenüber anderen neurologischen Erkrankungen und Kontrollen. Die relativ hohe positive Nachweisrate bei der MS, wie sie Angers u. Mitarb. [1] fanden, war nicht feststellbar. Daher sind vor der diagnostischen Anwendung der Methode weitere Analysen zur Charakterisierung des Antigens und zu den Voraussetzungen des Testsystems erforderlich.
    Notes: Summary To determine the value of laboratory methods proposed as tests for multiple sclerosis (MS), the reactivity of leucocytes to a preparation of an antigen from the blood of patients with MS (MS-related material) was studied in the leucocyte adherence inhibition (LAI) test. The results point to the existence of an antigenic substance in the blood of MS patients. When the LAI test was modified by the addition of calf serum there was a significant reaction of the leucocytes of MS compared to other neurological diseases and controls. The relatively high positive rate in MS previously reported was not detected. Therefore, further analyses concerning the characterisation of the antigen and the conditions of the test system will be necessary before the method can be used for diagnosis.

    Notes: Summary A standard latex phagocytosis test was used to determine the phagocytic activity of CSF monocytes under various pathological conditions. The mean values for groups of neurological diseases did not differ significantly, with the exception of tumour patients. Differences in the phagocytosis of CSF monocytes were seen if subdivisions within the groups of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and vertebral irritation syndrome (VIS) were evaluated separately. The active stage of MS and the intervertebral disc prolapse were accompanied by higher values. It is concluded that although the findings are of no use for diagnostic purposes they may be helpful in assessing prognosis and therapy.
