A role for humoral mechanisms in the pathogenesis of Devic's neuromyelitis optica.
TLDR
The extent of complement activation, eosinophilic infiltration and vascular fibrosis observed in the Devic NMO cases is more prominent compared with that in prototypic multiple sclerosis, and supports a role for humoral immunity in the pathogenesis of NMO.
