Complement Activation Is a Prominent Feature of MOGAD

Christian W. Keller et al.

Summary: MOG-antibody associated diseases account for a significant portion of patients with acquired demyelinating disorders, with elevated systemic complement activation observed in both adult and pediatric cases across all clinical syndromes. Complement inhibition should be considered for therapeutic merit in patients with MOGAD.

The ambiguous role of mannose-binding lectin (MBL) in human immunity

Namarta Kalia et al.

Summary: MBL plays a crucial role in distinguishing self from non-self structures, with its function and concentration affected by various variants and secretor polymorphisms. High levels of MBL may increase susceptibility to diseases, but the level of deficiency is yet to be defined and requires interpretation based on specific population designs for diseases.
