Summaries for Neuromyelitis Optica

About this section
NINDS : 54 Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that predominantly affects the optic nerves and spinal cord. It is sometimes also referred to as NMO spectrum disorder. In NMO, the body's immune system mistakenly attacks healthy cells and proteins in the body, most often those in the spinal cord and eyes. Individuals with NMO develop optic neuritis, which causes pain in the eye and vision loss. Individuals also develop transverse myelitis, which causes weakness or paralysis of arms and legs,and numbness, along with loss of bladder and bowel control. Magnetic resonance imaging of the spine often shows an abnormality that extends over long segments of the spinal cord. Individuals may also develop episodes of severe nausea and vomiting, with hiccups from involvement of a part of the brain that controls vomiting. The disease is caused by abnormal autoantibodies that bind to a protein called aquaporin-4. Binding of the aquaporin-4 antibody activates other components of the immune system, causing inflammation and damage to these cells. This also results in the brain and spinal cord the loss of myelin, the fatty substance that acts as insulation around nerve fibers and helps nerve signals move from cell to cell.  NMO is different from multiple sclerosis (MS). Attacks are usually more severe in NMO than in MS, and NMO is treated differently than MS. Most individuals with NMO experience clusters of attacks days to months or years apart, followed by partial recovery during periods of remission. Women are more often affected by NMO than men. African Americans are at greater risk of the disease than are Caucasians. The onset of NMO varies from childhood to adulthood, with two peaks, one in childhood and the other in adults in their 40s.

MalaCards based summary : Neuromyelitis Optica, also known as devic syndrome, is related to neuritis and optic neuritis. An important gene associated with Neuromyelitis Optica is AQP4 (Aquaporin 4), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Allograft rejection and Th17 cell differentiation. The drugs Mitoxantrone and Prednisone have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include Umbilical Cord, brain and spinal cord, and related phenotypes are recurrent singultus and visual loss

Disease Ontology : 12 A central nervous system disease characterized by inflammation of the optic nerve (optic neuritis) and inflammation of the spinal cord (myelitis).

Genetics Home Reference : 25 Neuromyelitis optica is an autoimmune disorder that affects the nerves of the eyes and the central nervous system, which includes the brain and spinal cord. Autoimmune disorders occur when the immune system malfunctions and attacks the body's own tissues and organs. In neuromyelitis optica, the autoimmune attack causes inflammation of the nerves, and the resulting damage leads to the signs and symptoms of the condition.

NIH Rare Diseases : 53 Neuromyelitis optica is an autoimmune disease that affects the spinal cord and optic nerves (nerves that carry visual messages to and from the brain). In neuromyelitis optica, the body's immune system mistakenly attacks healthy cells and a substance called myelin in the spinal cord and eyes. Symptoms may begin in childhood or adulthood. Spinal cord involvement results in transverse myelitis, which may cause pain, paralysis and abnormal sensations in the spine and limbs. Bladder and bowel problems may also develop. Symptoms from optic nerve involvement include eye pain and vision loss from optic neuritis. Other symptoms of neuromyelitis optica may include episodes of nausea, vomiting, and hiccups. Some people have episodes of symptoms months or years apart (the relapsing form), while others have a single episode lasting several months (the monophasic form). In either form, people with neuromyelitis optica often develop permanent muscle weakness and vision loss. The cause of the immune system dysfunction leading to neuromyelitis optica is not known. It usually occurs in only one person in a family. There is no cure, but there are therapies to reduce symptoms during episodes and prevent relapses.
