title: Research Advances in Biomarkers for Demyelinating Optic Neuritis.
abstract: Optic neuritis refers to all inflammatory diseases in the optic nerve. The most common type is demyelinating optic neuritis. Biomarkers can indicate its pathophysiological process and thus are useful in disease diagnosis and treatment. This article reviews the known biomarkers for demyelinating optic neuritis.
