Myelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease / 中华神经科杂志

ABSTRACT

Myelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is a recently-established autoimmune central nervous system demyelinating disease, characterized by the detection of serum anti-myelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody of IgG1 type. Sharing similar clinical manifestations with multiple sclerosis and aquaporin-4 antibody positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder, it has yet demonstrated a unique disease course, pathological and radiological features. Therefore, MOGAD should be regarded as a disease entity to carry out further investigation. This review intends to summarize its pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment progresses, so as to provide guidance for clinical practice.
