The Potential Pathogenicity of Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibodies in the Optic Pathway

Magdalena Lerch et al.

Summary: MOG antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is a demyelinating disease with optic neuritis as the most common symptom. The disease is characterized by the presence of autoantibodies against MOG (MOG-IgG) in patient's serum. The role of MOG-IgG in the pathogenesis of the disease is still not fully understood. This review summarizes the current research findings on MOGAD, optic neuritis, MOG antibodies, and experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.

Diagnosis of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease: International MOGAD Panel proposed criteria

Brenda Banwell et al.

Summary: Serum antibodies against MOG can help diagnose MOGAD, which is distinct from multiple sclerosis and neuromyelitis optica. The presence of MOG-IgG is a core criterion for the diagnosis. MOGAD can present with various symptoms and can be either monophasic or relapsing, and diagnostic accuracy relies on MOG-IgG cell-based assays.

Clinical, imaging features and outcomes of patients with anti-GFAP antibodies: a retrospective study

Bingqing Zhu et al.

Summary: This study evaluated and compared the clinical features, imaging, overlapping antibodies, and prognosis of pediatric and adult patients with anti-GFAP antibodies. The results showed that there was no significant difference in clinical symptoms and imaging findings between children and adult patients. Patients with overlapping antibodies were more likely to relapse, and children were more likely to have no disability symptoms than adults.

Clinical Manifestation, Auxiliary Examination Features, and Prognosis of GFAP Autoimmunity: A Chinese Cohort Study

Lei Liu et al.

Summary: This study reports the clinical manifestation and auxiliary examination features of 15 Chinese patients with glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) autoimmunity. The clinical presentation of GFAP astrocytopathy is heterogeneous, with an acute monophasic course and a chronic relapsing course being the main phenotypes. Tremors are a prominent clinical manifestation in patients with an acute monophasic course with GFAP-IgG antibodies only. Most patients responded well to immunotherapy.

Variability of cerebrospinal fluid findings by attack phenotype in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-IgG-associated disorder

Elia Sechi et al.

Summary: The variability in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) findings of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-IgG-associated disorder (MOGAD) is influenced by attack phenotype and preceding treatment. Patients with clinically isolated optic neuritis have lower white-blood-cell elevation compared to those with myelitis or brain/brainstem attacks. CSF pleocytosis is more common in optic neuritis patients with coexisting asymptomatic brain and/or spine MRI T2-lesions.

CD8+ T-cell predominance in autoimmune glial fibrillary acidic protein astrocytopathy

Zhongmin Yuan et al.

Summary: In autoimmune GFAP astrocytopathy (GFAP-A), there is a predominance of CD8(+) T cells with marked lymphocytic infiltration, especially adjacent to dystrophic neurons and astrocytes. Additionally, there is diffuse infiltration by CD68(+) and CD163(+) macrophages. CD8(+) astrocytes were identified in some samples, but no CD4(+) astrocytes were observed.
