Difference between Multiple sclerosis and Ocrelizumab

Multiple sclerosis vs. Ocrelizumab

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating disease in which the insulating covers of nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord are damaged. Ocrelizumab (trade name Ocrevus) is a humanized anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody.

Similarities between Multiple sclerosis and Ocrelizumab

Multiple sclerosis and Ocrelizumab have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): CD20, Humanized antibody, Interferon beta-1a, Intravenous therapy, Monoclonal antibody, Ofatumumab, Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy, Rituximab, Systemic lupus erythematosus.

CD20

B-lymphocyte antigen CD20 or CD20 is an activated-glycosylated phosphoprotein expressed on the surface of all B-cells beginning at the pro-B phase (CD45R+, CD117+) and progressively increasing in concentration until maturity.

Ofatumumab

Ofatumumab (trade name Arzerra, also known as HuMax-CD20) is a fully human monoclonal antibody (for the CD20 protein) which appears to inhibit early-stage B lymphocyte activation.

Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy

Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a rare and usually fatal viral disease characterized by progressive damage (-pathy) or inflammation of the white matter (leuko-) of the brain (-encephalo-) at multiple locations (multifocal).
