Intrathecal pathogenic anti–aquaporin‐4 antibodies in early neuromyelitis optica

TL;DR: The serum of most neuromyelitis optica patients contains autoantibodies directed against the aquaporin‐4 water channel located on astrocyte foot processes in the perivessel and subpial areas of the brain, and their role in disease pathogenesis was determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis: an update.

TL;DR: A number of recently conducted observational case series have substantially broadened the understanding about the clinical phenotype, diagnosis, and prognosis of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of Epstein-Barr virus proteins as putative targets of the immune response in multiple sclerosis

TL;DR: Findings demonstrate an increased immune response to EBV in MS patients, which suggests that the virus plays an important role in the pathogenesis of disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunopathogenesis and immunotherapy of multiple sclerosis.

TL;DR: Current knowledge of the immunopathogenesis of MS and corresponding animal models of disease is reviewed, new immunointerventional treatment strategies based on changing pathogenetic concepts are discussed, and new immunotherapeutic agents developed and evaluated in clinical trials are discussed.
