Neuromyelitis optic spectrum disorders (NMOSD): from pathogenesis to targeted therapy
In the review, we present the main pathogenetic mechanisms of the development of neuromyelitis optic spectrum disorders (NMOSD) associated with the appearance of anti-aquaporin-4 (APQ4-IgG) autoantibodies: damage to astrocytes, including complement ...

Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder
Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is an autoimmune disorder primarily associated with optic neuritis, myelitis or area postrema syndrome. Several lines of evidence suggest that NMOSD is a humoral immune disease mainly caused by aquaporin-4 antibody and related complement-dependent cytotoxicity against astrocytes.
