Title In Vivo Antibody Mediated Optic Nerve Demyelination
Creator Robert C. Sergott, MD
Subject Demyelinating Autoimmune Diseases, CNS; Optic Neuritis; Multiple Sclerosis; Antibodies
History Demyelination of the central nervous system (CNS) without coincident axonal damage is a characteristic pathologic lesion in multiple sclerosis (MS) and in optic neuritis, one of the frequent findings in MS.
Pathology Demyelinating lesions of the CNS
Disease/Diagnosis Multiple Sclerosis
Clinical Sera and concentrated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from patients with acute exacerbations of MS have produced in vitro demyelination of rodent CNS tissue cultures.
Presenting Symptom Demyelination of the central nervous system
Neuroimaging N/A
Treatment N/A
