This study shows that autoantibodies against GABAB receptors cause presynaptic pathology leading to cognitive decline and memory impairment.

This study finds that recurrent seizures in epilepsy are associated with reduced cortical entropy in the interictal state, particularly in those with earlier seizure onset.

The paper identifies an intrathecal antibody response to EBV BRRF2 and human antigens in MS, showing cross-reactivity and association with increased IgG synthesis.

This study examines the effects of LGI1 autoantibodies on human CA3 neurons using ex vivo slices, revealing increased neuronal activity and distinct mechanisms from potassium channel blockers.

The paper demonstrates that patient-derived monoclonal GABAA receptor antibodies cause catatonia and seizures in rodents, providing a model for autoimmune encephalitis and supporting antibody depletion as a treatment.
