    Histocompatibility testing was performed in 48 multiple sclerosis patients and two carefully matched control groups in Orkney Islands, an area of high multiple sclerosis prevalence. The frequency of HLA-A3, HLA-B7, and DW2 was comparable in patients and controls. However, HLA-B7 was significantly more common in female patients compared with male patients. A B-cell alloantigen (B-cell 4) was also as frequent in patients as among controls. Strong l…

In patients, no specific HLA antigen was associated wtih increased or decreased viral titres. However, HLA-B7 was significantly correlated with higher measles titres in healthy controls. Furthermore, controls who had the HLA haplotypes, B7, DW2 ad B-cell 4, demonstrated significantly …
