NMO-IgG and AQP4 Peptide Can Induce Aggravation of EAMG and Immune-Mediated Muscle Weakness by Tehila Mizrachi, Livnat Brill, Malcolm Rabie, Yoram Nevo, Yakov Fellig, Mayan Zur, Dimitrios Karussis, Oded Abramsky, Talma Brenner, Adi Vaknin-Dembinsky

“…Injection of either AQP4 peptide or NMO-Ig to EAMG or to naive mice caused increased fatigability and aggravation of EAMG symptoms as expressed by augmented muscle weakness (but not paralysis), decremental response to repetitive nerve stimulation, increased neuromuscular jitter, and aberration of immune responses. Thus, our study shows increased disease severity in EAMG mice following immunization with the NMO autoantigen AQP4 or by NMO-Ig, mediated by augmented inflammatory response. …”
