Pathophysiology of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody disease
Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody Disease (MOGAD) is a spectrum of diseases, including optic neuritis, transverse myelitis, acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, and cerebral cortical encephalitis. In addition to distinct clinical, radiological, and immunological features, the infectious prodrome is more commonly reported in MOGAD (37–70 ...

Ofatumumab in Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody-Associated Disease: A Comparison With Rituximab. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ofatumumab in patients with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody–associated disease (MOGAD), and compare it with rituximab. Methods We conducted a single–center, observational study including 22 MOGAD patients treated with ofatumumab and 21 treated with rituximab.

The Structure and Function of Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein [PDF]
Abstract : Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) is a quantitatively minor component of CNS myelin whose function remains relatively unknown. As MOG is an autoantigen capable of producing a demyelinating multiple sclerosis‐like disease in mice and rats, much of the research directed toward MOG has been immunological in nature. Although the function

Quantitative MRI Uncovers Subtle Cortical Damage in Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody-Associated Disease. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective To determine whether myelin‐sensitive quantitative MRI reveals microstructural abnormalities in normal‐appearing cortex (NACtx) in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody–associated disease (MOGAD), indicating that conventional MRI underestimates remission residual cortical injury.

Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Encephalomyelitis
Background: Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein encephalomyelitis (MOG-EM) includes patients with (i) monophasic or relapsing acute optic neuritis, myelitis, brainstem encephalitis, or encephalitis; (ii) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or electrophysiological evidence of central nervous system (CNS) demyelination; and (iii ...

Frequency and Characteristics of Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody-Associated Disease Accompanied by Fever: A Single-Center Retrospective Study. [PDF]
Diagnostic pitfall in fever with CNS involvement: MOGAD. Fever accompanied by neurological symptoms was initially suspected as central nervous system infection. However, negative pathogen tests and failed anti‐infective therapy, followed by positive MOG‐IgG, led to a revised diagnosis of MOGAD. The patient responded favorably to corticosteroids or IVIG.

Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibodies in genetic leukodystrophies
Accumulation of intermediate metabolites due to enzyme deficiencies and demyelination can provoke inflammation in genetic leukodystrophies. Thirty patients with genetic leukodystrophy and 48 healthy control sera were tested for anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibodies by fixed and/or live cell-based assays.

A Molecular Model of Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein [PDF]
Abstract: Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) is a protein on the surface of myelin sheaths. It is a putative target of the autoimmune attack in the inflammatory and demyelinating CNS disease multiple sclerosis and its animal model, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.

Myelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease [PDF]
Myelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is a recently identified autoimmune disorder that presents in both adults and children as CNS demyelination. Although there are clinical phenotypic overlaps between MOGAD, multiple sclerosis, and aquaporin-4 antibody-associated neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD ...
