Journal ArticleDOI
Antibodies to Kv1 potassium channel-complex proteins leucine-rich, glioma inactivated 1 protein and contactin-associated protein-2 in limbic encephalitis, Morvan's syndrome and acquired neuromyotonia.

TL;DR: The identification of leucine-rich, glioma inactivated 1 protein and contactin-associated protein-2 as the major targets of potassium channel antibodies, and their associations with different clinical features, begins to explain the diversity of these syndromes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autoantibodies to glutamic acid decarboxylase in patients with epilepsy are associated with low cortical GABA levels
Charlotte J. Stagg,B Lang,B Lang,Jonathan G. Best,Karen McKnight,Ana Cavey,Heidi Johansen-Berg,Angela Vincent,Angela Vincent,Jacqueline Palace +9 more
TL;DR: Demonstration of an association between high serum GAD antibody levels and low cortical GABA levels in patients with epilepsy suggests that GAD antibodies are, at least, a marker of a specific disease process and support a role for immune‐mediated GABAergic dysfunction.
Journal Article
Antibodies to neuronal alpha7 acetylcholine receptor in patients with Rasmussen's encephalitis
Journal Article
Viral vectors for immunisation against potassium channel Kv1.2
Short communication IgG subclass distribution of autoantibodies in pediatric opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome
S. Beck,V. Fühlhuber,I. Krasenbrink,Marlene Tschernatsch,N. Kneifel,A. Kirsten,C. Jaeger,M. Kaps,B Lang,Kevin Rostasy,F. Blaes +10 more
TL;DR: These results support the autoimmunehypothesis and point to a protein autoantigen as antigenic target in OMS.
