Abstract

Till now it is still unknown which initial factors are involved in the demyelination process in MS. Recent and established lesions have been extensively described by various authors using histological and enzyme-histological methods (Adams, 1975, 1977; Friede and Arbor, 1961; Friede and Knoller, 1964).
