title: HLA typing on Italian multiple sclerosis population.
abstract: Considerable evidence suggests the existence of significant differences of HLA distribution between M.S. patients and normal healthy subjects of the same population. In the present work we investigate whether the antigen DW2 may be a better marker for M.S. than the specificities at the loci A and B by means of in vitro one-way mixed lymphocyte cultures.
