Structural insights into the antigenicity of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein [PDF]
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic disease of the central nervous system (CNS) characterized by inflammation, demyelination, and axonal loss. The immunopathogenesis of demyelination in multiple sclerosis involves an autoantibody response to myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG), a type I transmembrane protein located at the ...

Particular aspects of myelin-axon interactions in health and disease : the expression of myelin-associated glycoprotein isoforms in CNS and PNS. Early axonal pathology in the dysmyelinating peripheral neuropathy CMT1A [PDF]
An intact myelin sheath is crucial for the rapid propagation of action potentials along myelinated axons. There are many neurodegenerative diseases associated with defect myelin sheaths resulting in severe clinical symptoms such as multiple sclerosis ...

Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is an immune-mediated inflammatory condition involving spinal cord and optic nerves. Diagnosis of NMOSD is done by aquaporin-4 antibody (AQP4) in patients with optic neuritis.

Developmental Expression of the Oligodendrocyte Myelin Glycoprotein in the Mouse Telencephalon [PDF]
The oligodendrocyte myelin glycoprotein is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein expressed by neurons and oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system. Attempts have been made to identify the functions of the myelin-associated inhibitory proteins (MAIPs) after axonal lesion or in neurodegeneration.
