title: Adherence of multiple sclerosis lymphocytes to measles infected cells.
abstract: Adherence of lymphocytes from multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and control subjects to cells persistently infected by measles and control cells was studied. No statistically significant difference between MS patients and controls could be found in this test. Lymphocytes adhered more readily to cells infected by measles than to control cells. The cell to cell contacts are made by the tips of the microvillii of the Lu cells.
