Invariant NKT cells in adrenoleukodystrophy patients and mice.

abstract：:Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is a rare demyelinating disease, affecting selectively the optic nerve and the spinal cord. It was previously considered to be a severe variant of multiple sclerosis (MS) due to the similar pathological features and its resemblance to optico-spinal, or Japanese, MS, typical of Asian populati...
