Differential binding patterns of anti-sulfatide antibodies to glial membranes [PDF]
, 2018 Sulfatide is a major glycosphingolipid in myelin and a target for autoantibodies in autoimmune neuropathies. However neuropathy disease models have not been widely established, in part because currently available monoclonal antibodies to sulfatide may ...

Demyelination and axonal preservation in a transgenic mouse model of Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease [PDF]
, 2010 It is widely thought that demyelination contributes to the degeneration of axons and, in combination with acute inflammatory injury, is responsible for progressive axonal loss and persistent clinical disability in inflammatory demyelinating disease.

Zika virus infection in the returning traveller: what every neurologist should know [PDF]
, 2018 Zika virus has been associated with a wide range of neurological complications. Neurologists in areas without current active transmission of the virus may be confronted with Zika-associated neurological disease, as a large number of returning travellers ...

Asymmetric Type F Botulism with Cranial Nerve Demyelination
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012 We report a case of type F botulism in a patient with bilateral but asymmetric neurologic deficits. Cranial nerve demyelination was found during autopsy. Bilateral, asymmetric clinical signs, although rare, do not rule out botulism.

18F-Fluorodeoxy Glucose and 11C-Methionine Accumulation in Demyelinating Lesions
World Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2022 Background Few studies have evaluated the accumulation of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG), 11C-methionine (MET), and other positron emission tomography (PET) tracers in patients with demyelinating disease.
