MOG(35-55), Mouse

Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and is expressed exclusively in the central nervous system. MOG (35-55) is able to induce autoantibody production and relapsing-remitting neurological disease causing extensive plaque-like demyelination. Autoantibody response to MOG (35-55) has been observed in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and MOG (35-55)-induced experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) C57/BL6 mice and Lewis rats. Every lot of MOG (35-55) peptide is tested and proven to induce EAE.
