- Distinction between MOG antibody-positive and AQP4 antibody-positive NMO spectrum disorders(2014) SATO, Douglas Kazutoshi; CALLEGARO, Dagoberto; LANA-PEIXOTO, Marco Aurelio; WATERS, Patrick J.; JORGE, Frederico M. de Haidar; TAKAHASHI, Toshiyuki; NAKASHIMA, Ichiro; APOSTOLOS-PEREIRA, Samira Luisa; TALIM, Natalia; SIMM, Renata Faria; LINO, Angelina Maria Martins; MISU, Tatsuro; LEITE, Maria Isabel; AOKI, Masashi; FUJIHARA, KazuoObjective:To evaluate clinical features among patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) who have myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibodies, aquaporin-4 (AQP4) antibodies, or seronegativity for both antibodies.Methods:Sera from patients diagnosed with NMOSD in 1 of 3 centers (2 sites in Brazil and 1 site in Japan) were tested for MOG and AQP4 antibodies using cell-based assays with live transfected cells.Results:Among the 215 patients with NMOSD, 7.4% (16/215) were positive for MOG antibodies and 64.7% (139/215) were positive for AQP4 antibodies. No patients were positive for both antibodies. Patients with MOG antibodies represented 21.1% (16/76) of the patients negative for AQP4 antibodies. Compared with patients with AQP4 antibodies or patients who were seronegative, patients with MOG antibodies were more frequently male, had a more restricted phenotype (optic nerve more than spinal cord), more frequently had bilateral simultaneous optic neuritis, more often had a single attack, had spinal cord lesions distributed in the lower portion of the spinal cord, and usually demonstrated better functional recovery after an attack.Conclusions:Patients with NMOSD with MOG antibodies have distinct clinical features, fewer attacks, and better recovery than patients with AQP4 antibodies or patients seronegative for both antibodies.
