Pathology of neuromyelitis optica

Rinsho Shinkeigaku, 2009
Understanding of the pathogenesis of neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is rapidly growing. In our immunohistochemical studies from 2006, the loss of AQP4 was evident in about 90% of NMO lesions, especially in perivascular areas of acute inflammatory lesions where immunoglobulins and complements were deposited.

Synergistic Interaction Between MALAT1/miR‐30b‐5p/BAFF Axis and Inflammatory Cytokines Underlies Rituximab‐Refractory NMOSD

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
The MALAT1/miR‐30b‐5p/BAFF axis is activated in monocytes during NMOSD onset and relapse. The MALAT1/miR‐30b‐5p/BAFF axis is activated in monocytes, thereby facilitating the release of BAFF and inflammatory cytokines (including IL‐1, IL‐6, IL‐8, and TNF‐α).

The Association Between MOG‐IgG Positivity and mRNA SARS‐CoV‐2 Vaccination in Denmark: A Self‐Controlled Case Series Study

Pharmacoepidemiology and Drug Safety, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Spontaneous reporting of a possible link between myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody‐associated disease (MOGAD) and mRNA SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccination warrants further examination. Hence, the objective of this study was to investigate the association between MOG‐IgG positivity as a proxy for MOGAD and mRNA SARS‐CoV‐2 ...
