<p>Process for in vitro production of a culture or cell line infected by a viral strain associated with multiple sclerosis. According to the process, a sample is taken from a person with multiple sclerosis, the sample is cultivated in a medium promoting the growth of infected cells to obtain a culture of primary infected cells. A sample of the primary cell culture or a sub-culture of the latter is then cultivated in series, i.e. by means of successive cultures, in said culture medium to obtain the culture or cell line infected by a multiple sclerosis associated virus. The invention is characterized in that the culture medium further contains a beta anti-interferon antibody or antibody which is directed against an antigenically close molecule. Said antibody plays an inhibiting role in viral expression, has long-lasting expression and propagates the viral strain in the culture or cell line.</p> |
