Journal ArticleDOI

Anti-NMDA-receptor encephalitis: case series and analysis of the effects of antibodies

TL;DR: A well-defined set of clinical characteristics are associated with anti-NMDA-receptor encephalitis and the pathogenesis of the disorder seems to be mediated by antibodies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cellular and synaptic mechanisms of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis

TL;DR: These studies establish the cellular mechanisms through which antibodies of patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis cause a specific, titer-dependent, and reversible loss of NMDARs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antibody titres at diagnosis and during follow-up of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis: a retrospective study

TL;DR: The sensitivity of NMDA receptor antibody testing is higher in CSF than in serum, and antibody titres were higher in patients with poor outcome than in those with good outcome, emphasising the importance of including CSF in antibody studies, and that antibody titre can complement clinical assessments.
