The present report, compares two murine models of virus induced chronic relapsing demyelination. MHV-induced demyelination in the BALB/c mouse results from the direct virus mediated cytolysis of oligodendrocytes. Extensive remyelination by oligodendrocytes is noted. Recurrent demyel­ ination occurs in small areas. Infectious virus persists and 34 Fig. 2: Demyelination in SJL/J mice infected with TMEV.

TMEV-induced demyelination in SJL/J mice is asso­ ciated with perivascular inflammatory infilrates and is dimin­ ished by immunosuppressive measures. Remyelination by oligo­ dendrocytes is delayed and incomplete. Chronic demyelination is widespread and associated with perivascular inflammatory infiltrates. The virus persists and viral antigen is local­ ized within oligodendrocytes.
