Tumor necrosis factor mediates myelin and oligodendrocyte damage in vitro

TL;DR: It appears that a physiological (not structural) demyelination occurs initially without overt destruction of the myelin sheath, relevant to the evolution of the multiple sclerosis plaque: dysfunction of ionic channels might contribute to the eventual demise of oligodendrocytes and axons in the longstanding lesion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of autoantibodies associated with myelin damage in multiple sclerosis

TL;DR: These findings represent direct evidence that autoantibodies against a specific myelin protein mediate target membrane damage in central nervous system demyelinating disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glutamate excitotoxicity in a model of multiple sclerosis

TL;DR: Glutamate excitotoxicity seems to be an important mechanism in autoimmune demyelination, and its prevention with AMPA/kainate antagonists may prove to be a effective therapy for multiple sclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cytokine-induced immune deviation as a therapy for inflammatory autoimmune disease.

TL;DR: Modulation of an immune response from one dominated by excessive activity of Th1-like T cells to onedominated by the protective cytokines produced by Th2- like T cells may have applicability to the therapy of certain human autoimmune diseases.
