Lehmann,Stefanie Kuerten,Stefanie Kuerten +25 more
TL;DR: For the first time, a pathomechanistic link is established between the well-established autoimmune attack on the CNS and ENS pathology in MS, which might provide a paradigm shift in the current understanding of the immunopathogenesis of the disease with broad diagnostic and therapeutic implications.

Strategies for Neuroprotection in Multiple Sclerosis and the Role of Calcium.
TL;DR: This review provides an overview on calcium channels in neurons and glial cells and summarizes several approaches that have been and are currently being tested for their neuroprotective capacities in MS.

Antibody cross-reactivity between casein and myelin-associated glycoprotein results in central nervous system demyelination
Rittika Chunder,Alicia Weier,Hannah Mäurer,Nicolas Luber,Michael Enders,Gabriele Luber,Thorsten Heider,Alfred Spitzer,Sabine Tacke,J. Becker-Gotot,Christian Kurts,Radhika Iyer,Peggy P. Ho,William H. Robinson,Tobias V. Lanz,Stefanie Kuerten +15 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a high percentage of MS patients harbor antibodies to bovine casein but also that antibody cross-reactivity between cow’s milk and CNS antigens can exacerbate demyelination.

Murine Esophagus Expresses Glial-Derived Central Nervous System Antigens
Christopher Kapitza,Rittika Chunder,Anja Scheller,Katherine S. Given,Wendy B. Macklin,Michael Enders,Stefanie Kuerten,Stefanie Kuerten,Winfried Neuhuber,Jürgen Wörl +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify glial and myelin markers as potential target structures for autoimmune processes in the esophagus and identify the involvement of esophageal glial cells in the pathogenesis of dysphagia in MS.

Bone marrow-derived myeloid progenitors in the leptomeninges of adult mice
Tobias Koeniger,Luisa Bell,Anika Mifka,Michael Enders,Valentin Hautmann,Subba Rao Mekala,Philipp Kirchner,Arif B. Ekici,Christian Schulz,Philipp Wörsdörfer,Stine Mencl,Christoph Kleinschnitz,Süleyman Ergün,Stefanie Kuerten,Stefanie Kuerten,Stefanie Kuerten +15 more
TL;DR: The presence of myeloid progenitors at the meningeal border of the brain is confirmed and the foundation to unravel their possible functions in CNS surveillance and local immune cell production is laid.
