Myelin-reactive antibodies are induced in vivo upon immunization with viral antigen. (A) Immunization schemes representing chronic immune response (CIR) and multiple acute subsequent immunization (MASI) models. Timeline indicates immunizations (designated by roman numbers and arrows) and blood sample collection from vena ophthalmica (designated by white rhombs). (B) Analysis of presence of anti-myelin basic protein (MBP) (top), anti-LMP (middle), and anti-ovalbumin (OVA) (bottom) antibodies in serum of BALB/c and SJL mice immunized with MBP (blue line), latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) (red line), or OVA (black dashed line) according to CIR (left) or MASI (right) model. Data represent average and SD. Asterisk denotes statistically significant difference of anti-MBP and anti-LMP1 antibody titer in serum of MBP- or LMP1-immunized mice in comparison with a control (OVA-immunized mice) or anti-OVA antibody titer in serum of OVA-immunized mice in comparison with a control with a MBP- and LMP1-immunized mice.
