THE PURPOSE of these experiments was to study vascular permeability in the nervous system during the development of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) and the temporal and spatial relationship of any changes in permeability to the histologic lesions of this disease. This information might be expected to shed light upon one aspect of the pathogenesis of this disease, namely the site of the primary lesion, which at present is not known. Should it be in the wall of the vessels, the vascular permeability might be increased before other signs of inflammation can be seen; should it be in the surrounding parenchyma, the increase in permeability could appear simultaneously with-or perhaps slightly later than-the inflammatory reaction around the vessel wall. Barlow2 has investigated cerebral vascular permeability in EAE, using trypan blue, and found increased permeability in regions with perivascular infiltration but not in those with perivascular cuffing. We have studied the permeability with iodinated radioactive bovine albumin, employing an autoradiographic method for its detection. This method gives a more precise localization than trypan blue and a greater intensity of staining. In addition, we can expect that study of the changes of protein permeability may be more relevant to the problem of pathogenesis of EAE, which is considered to be a manifestation of a hypersensitive reaction.
