Abstract
Transfection studies on DNA obtained from 16 multiple sclerosis (MS) and 13 non-MS brain tissues suggested that 3/16 (19%) MS and 3/13 (23%) non-MS samples contained contaminating measles virus double-stranded RNA, and that 6/16 (38%) MS and 0/13 non-MS samples contained DNA transcripts of measles genes. It is argued that the DNA transcripts most probably originated from dual retrovirus and measles infections in the subjects.Entities:
