Background

Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Peptide (35-55) (MOG (35-55); CAS 149635-73-4) is a truncated peptide from human myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) and is a trace component of central nervous system (CNS) myelin. MOG is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and is expressed only in the CNS. MOG (35-55) is commonly used to establish experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (multiple sclerosis) animal models; humoral immunity against MOG may participate in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS)[1].

MOG (35-55) participates in inducing autoantibody production and extensive plaque-like demyelination caused by relapsing-remitting neurological disease[2]. In HLA-DR2 transgenic mice, myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein 35-55 peptide induces severe chronic experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis[3]. MOG35-55 is highly encephalitogenic and induces strong responses of rat T and B cells[4]. In NOD/Lt mice (H-2g7) and C57BL/6 mice (H-2b), a single injection of MOG35-55 in CFA induces an MS-like disease[4].

General tips We do not recommend long-term storage for the solution, please use it up soon.

Protocol

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

Brain endothelial cells

Preparation method

The solubility of this compound in sterile water is 0.50 mg/mL. General tips for obtaining a higher concentration: Please warm the tube at 37 °C for 10 minutes and/or shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while. Stock solution can be stored below - 20 °C for several months.

Reacting condition

0 ~ 50 μg/mL; 48 hrs

Applications

MOG (35-55) significantly decreased the protein concentration in a dose-dependent manner. In cells treated with MOG (35-55) (50 μg/mL) + CFA + PTX, the protein concentration decreased to 37.6% of the level in the CON cells. At the doses of 25 or 50 μg/mL, MOG (35-55) emulsion substantially increased the activities of NADPH oxidase and MMP-9 (44.1 ~ 48.5% and 2-fold higher than those in the CON cells, respectively).

Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

C57BL/6 mice

Dosage form

50, 100 or 150 μg; s.c.

Applications

At the doses of 50 and 100 μg, MOG (35-55) induced more dramatic weight losses during the course of the MS-like disease, when compared with mice injected with 150 μg MOG (35-55). At day 17 after treatment, 3/5 mice in the 50 μg MOG (35-55) group were moribund whereas 4/5 mice still survived in the 100 and 150 μg dose groups. However, no clinical sign and disease progression were observed in these 3 groups of mice.

Other notes

Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal.
