MOG antibody-associated diseases
In the past few years several studies have consistently reported the presence of high-titer serum IgG antibodies to conformational epitopes of the myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) in predominantly pediatric patients with acquired demyelinating diseases. Moreover, MOG antibodies seem not only to distinguish patients with clinically isolated syndromes or multiple sclerosis (MS) from mono...
متن کاملHistopathology and clinical course of MOG-antibody-associated encephalomyelitis
We present histological, MRI, and clinical features of an adult patient with relapsing encephalomyelitis and antibodies against myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG). Furthermore, we report molecular details of the recognized epitope that is specific for human MOG. A brain biopsy revealed multiple sclerosis (MS)-type II pathology. Some features overlapped with both MS and neuromyelitis opti...
متن کاملDefining distinct features of anti-MOG antibody associated central nervous system demyelination
Extensive research over the last decades basically failed to identify a common cause of noninfectious inflammatory central nervous system (CNS) demyelinating disease. To a great extent, this may reflect that the group of inflammatory CNS demyelinating disorders likely contains multiple pathogenetically distinct disease entities. Indeed, the greatest success so far in deciphering the pathogenesi...
متن کاملInfluenza-associated MOG antibody-positive longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis: a case report
BACKGROUND Myelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody (MOG antibodies) was found in various demyelinated diseases. This is the first report of a patient with longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis with an extremely high titer of MOG antibodies after an influenza infection. This case supports the view that MOG antibodies are linked to longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis and that...
متن کاملMOG antibody-associated optic neuritis in the setting of acute CMV infection
A previously healthy 39 year old man was admitted to our hospital with subacute pain and blurred vision in the right eye, in the absence of fever. Physical exam was notable for mydriasis and relative afferent pupillary defect of the right pupil. Visual acuity was 0.5 in the right eye and 1.0 in the left eye. Funduscopic examination of the right eye revealed mild papilledema without concurrent r...
