Targeted therapy for neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders
Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSDs) have the characteristics of high relapse rate and high disability rate. The neurological deficits would become more and more serious with increasing relapse.

The role of microglia has emerged as a critical driver of disease progression in multiple sclerosis (MS), but we lack broadly applicable monitoring tools. Here, we investigated whether hyperreflective foci (HRF), as detected by optical coherence tomography (OCT) within the inner nuclear layer (INL) of the retina, can be used as a marker for microglial ...

Channel Dysfunction as the Basis for Comorbidities in Multiple Sclerosis and Depression
Ion channel remodelling induced by neuroinflammation in multiple sclerosis alters neuronal excitability and immune signalling, creating shared molecular pathways that link multiple sclerosis pathology to depression and reveal novel pharmacological targets.

Role of Glutamatergic Excitotoxicity in Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders
Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is an inflammatory disorder mediated by immune-humoral responses directed against central nervous system (CNS) antigens.

ABSTRACT Background Relapse is the primary driver of irreversible disability accumulation in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). Although aquaporin‐4 immunoglobulin G (AQP4‐IgG) is central to disease diagnosis and pathogenesis, reliable tools for individualized relapse risk stratification remain limited.

ABSTRACT Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody‐associated disease (MOGAD) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by demyelination of the central nervous system. It can impact the optic nerves, spinal cord, brain parenchyma, and brainstem, resulting in various clinical presentations such as acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM), optic ...

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).
