Neuromyelitis optica IgG and natural killer cells produce NMO lesions in mice without myelin loss

The pathogenesis of neuromyelitis optica (NMO) involves targeting of NMO-immunoglobulin G (NMO-IgG) to aquaporin-4 (AQP4) on astrocytes in the central nervous system. Prior work provided evidence for complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) in NMO lesion development. Here, we show that antibody-depen...
