Reappraisal of CSF-specific oligoclonal bands in Asia
Multiple Sclerosis Journal, 2021The prevalence of cerebrospinal fluid–specific oligoclonal bands (CSF-OCBs) was reported to be low in Asian people with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) compared to that in Western pwMS. It is yet to be determined whether it is a genuine feature of Asian pwMS or a misapprehension owing to past mis-classification of MS-mimicking diseases as MS.

Oligoclonal Bands in Myoclonus Epilepsy
Archives of Neurology, 1982To the Editor.— Iivanainen et al (Archives1981;38:206-208) reported the presence of CSF oligoclonal bands in six of eight patients with progressive myoclonus epilepsy. However, in most, if not all, of the positive cases, the apparent oligoclonal pattern was identical, consisting of two bands, one with mid-γ mobility and the other with slow-γ mobility.

CSF-Oligoclonal Bands in Multiple Sclerosis
1980The present paper is concerned with a correlation between clinical parameters of multiple sclerosis and different agar gel electrophoretical patterns in CSF. The agar gel electrophoresis represents clearly the most sensitive method for the demonstration of oligoclonal bands in CSF.

Oligoclonal bands: An immunological and clinical approach
2022Oligoclonal bands (OCBs) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) represent an indicator of IgG and IgM immunoglobulins intrathecal synthesis in the central nervous system (CNS). The techniques and detection methods for their determination have evolved from the beginning to isoelectric focusing on an agarose gel as the gold standard technique and immunodetection ...

Oligoclonal Bands in Cerebrospinal Fluid
1980Considering the well-known importance of CSF IgG in laboratory tests for the diagnosis of MS, we have studied purified CSF IgG using the technique of isoelectric focusing (IEF) (Table 1) in 17 cases of MS and a control population of 22 Other Neurological Disease (OND) and 14 normal subjects (Table 2).

Oligoclonal Bands in Myoclonus Epilepsy-Reply
Archives of Neurology, 1982In Reply.— We appreciate Dr Keshgegian's comments. Following the publication of our report on immunologic abnormalities in the CSF of patients with progressive myoclonus epilepsy, we developed a micromethod for detection of oligoclonal IgG in unconcentrated CSF by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.1We tested for oligoclonal IgG bands in the same ...

Oligoclonal bands and antibody responses in Multiple Sclerosis
Journal of Neurology, 2002Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease of the Central Nervous System with multifocal areas of demyelination. Although its etiology and pathogenesis remain controversial, several lines of evidence indicate that MS is mediated by a misdirected immune response against one or several myelin proteins. The involvement of diverse leukocyte subsets

[Clinical usefulness of oligoclonal bands].
Revista de neurologia, 2001The presence of oligoclonal bands (OCB) of immunoglobulin G (IgG) is in our days the most useful finding in the study of the CSF for the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS). The most sensitive method for the detection of OCB is the isoelectric focusing followed by immunoblotting.

Oligoclonal bands in unconcentrated CSF
Neurochemical Pathology, 1983Agarose gel electrophoresis (AGE) and agarose isoelectric focusing (AIEF) were performed on unconcentrated CSF from patients with multiple sclerosis and other neurological disorders. Electrophoretic profiles were examined after staining with silver.
