Furthermore, the cerebrospinal fluid cytokine profile in patients with MOGAD is more similar to the profile in those with AQP4-IgG-positive NMOSD than to the profile in those with MS, with a predominant representation of Th17-related cytokines such as IL-6, IL-8, and IL-1739,40. This evidence concerns the gene CXCL8 and myeloid sarcoma.
