The role of the humoral phase of the immune response in development of T cell-mediated experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) had not been clearly defined previously even though studies of the myelin basic protein (MBP) molecule had demonstrated the presence not only of T cell but also B cell epitopes capable of inducing cell-mediated immunity and antibody formation.
