Currently, it is not believed that the MOGA type of protein involved in cell adhesion. Present throughout myelin sheaths. antibodyA protective protein produced by your immune system that attaches to antigens (foreign substances), such as bacteria and toxins, and removes them from your body. In myelin oligodendrocyte glycoproten antibody disease (MOGAD), the body incorrectly produces an antibody that targets myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein, a component of the myelin sheath in the central nervous system. destroys or causes degredation of the blood brain barrier.
