Lipoprotein dynamics in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder
Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a neuroinflammatory disease caused by aquaporin-4 IgG antibodies, which damage astrocytes and trigger inflammation. Although altered lipid profiles have been observed in various neuroinflammatory diseases,

Choroid Plexus Abnormalities in Autoimmune Encephalitis
Choroid plexus (ChP) enlargement is a robust AE imaging biomarker, with independent prognostic value for AEAE and poor outcomes. ChP MRI radiomic model predicts AEAE well, leveraging shape features to provide effective predictive performance for AEAE. Multi‑omics links ChP enlargement to reduced glutamatergic synapse pathway activity and enhanced PI3K ...

With Regard to the Expression Status of Sarcolemmal Aquaporin 4 in Human Muscular Dystrophies
ABSTRACT Human muscular dystrophies are inherited muscle‐wasting diseases caused by the various kinds of gene mutations. Among them, Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a representative type. Before the discovery of the causative dystrophin gene of DMD, the fragile myofiber plasma membrane was thought to be the trigger of myofiber necrosis in DMD ...
