ENZYMATIC DEGLYCOSYLATION CONVERTS PATHOGENIC NEUROMYELITIS OPTICA ANTI-AQUAPORIN-4 IgG INTO THERAPEUTIC ANTIBODY

OBJECTIVE: Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is caused by binding of pathogenic autoantibodies (NMO-IgG) to aquaporin-4 (AQP4) on astrocytes, which initiates complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) and inflammation. We recently introduced mutated antibody (aquaporumab) and small-molecule blocker strategies...
