The production and characterization of an anti-guinea pig B cell monoclonal antibody is described. Immunocytochemical techniques using this antibody and others recognizing a Pan T cell antigen and T cell subsets were employed to study frozen sections of spinal cord from guinea pigs with chronic relapsing experimental allergic encephalomyelitis. T and B cells were found in both perivascular lesions and the central nervous system parenchyma, with the major T cell infiltration occurring by the end of the acute phase of disease. The distribution of T cell subsets suggests a phenotypic selectivity in favour of the transport of CT6 (putative CD8)+ve cells across the blood-brain barrier.
