Macrophages and Autoantibodies in Demyelinating Diseases
Myelin phagocytosis by macrophages has been an essential feature of demyelinating diseases in the central and peripheral nervous systems, including Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), and multiple ...

Ferroptosis and central nervous system demyelinating diseases
Ferroptosis is a newly discovered programmed cell death caused by intracellular iron excess and glutathione (GSH) system imbalance, resulting in fatal lipid peroxidation. It is different from necrosis, apoptosis, autophagy, and other forms of cell death.

Existing Evidence for the Repurposing of PARP-1 Inhibitors in Rare Demyelinating Diseases
Simple Summary Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) inhibitors are successful cancer therapeutics that impair DNA repair machinery, leading to an accumulation of DNA damage and consequently cell death.

Immunopathology of Tumefactive Demyelinating Lesions-From Idiopathic to Drug-Related Cases
Tumefactive demyelinating lesions (TDL) represent a diagnostic dilemma for clinicians, and in rare atypical cases a collaboration of a neuroradiologist, a neurologist, and a neuropathologist is warranted for accurate diagnosis.
