Remyelination by surviving oligodendrocytes is inefficient in the inflamed mammalian cortex
New insights into effector functions of autoantibodies to myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein


April 2023 – In multiple sclerosis immune-mediated myelin loss can be partially reversed by remyelination. Here the Kerschensteiner lab and the Misgeld lab at TUM investigate if and how mature oligodendrocytes that survive in the lesion area in both MS patients and models can contribute to the...
March 2023 - Autoantibodies against myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) define a new disease entity, MOG-antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) for which no therapy has yet been approved. MOG-Abs from patients are pathogenic, but precise effector mechanisms are unclear. Here...
