Neuroprotection in a Novel Mouse Model of Multiple Sclerosis [PDF]
Multiple sclerosis is an immune-mediated, demyelinating and neurodegenerative disease that currently lacks any neuroprotective treatments. Innovative neuroprotective trial designs are required to hasten the translational process of drug development.

Progressive myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-associated demyelination mimicking leukodystrophy [PDF]
Background: Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) may be associated with relapsing disease, but clinical progression independent of relapse activity is rare.

Anti-myelin-associated-glycoprotein neuropathy successfully treated with tirabrutinib
Background: Anti-myelin-associated-glycoprotein (MAG) neuropathy is a distal, predominantly demyelinating, sensory or sensory-motor polyneuropathy most often developing in the context of an IgM-type monoclonal gammopathy due to monoclonal gammopathy of ...

Cleavage of myelin associated glycoprotein by matrix metalloproteinases [PDF]
Derivative myelin associated glycoprotein (dMAG) results from proteolysis of transmembrane MAG and can inhibit axonal growth. We have tested the ability of certain matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) elevated with inflammatory and demyelinating diseases to cleave MAG. We show MMP-2, MMP-7 and MMP-9, but not MMP-1, cleave recombinant human MAG. Cleavage by

MAG, myelin and overcoming growth inhibition in the CNS.
While neurons in the central nervous system have the capacity to regenerate their axons after injury, they fail to do so, in part because regeneration is limited by growth inhibitory proteins present in CNS myelin.

Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease manifesting as intractable fever managed by bromocriptine: a case report [PDF]
Background Demyelinating events expressed as abnormal thermoregulatory responses are rare, but intractable fever in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is very rarely reported. Case Report A 56-year-old woman presented

Functional role of the overexpression of the myelin and lymphocyte protein MAL in Schwann cells [PDF]
For fast propagation of action potentials in the nervous system, higher vertebrates have developed a specialized plasma membrane structure, the myelin, ensheathing nerve fibers. Myelin sheaths are formed by Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system (
