Autoimmune encephalitis positive for both anti-γ-aminobutyric acid B receptor and anticollapsin response-mediator protein 5 antibodies
RATIONALE Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is a heterogeneous group of recently identified disorders. Despite severe and even prolonged neurologic deficits, dramatic improvements may occur with proper immunotherapy in some patients with AE. Antineuronal antibodies have been discovered in patients' serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). However, AE with multiple antineuronal antibodies is rare. To dat...
متن کاملGABA(B) receptor antibodies in limbic encephalitis and anti-GAD-associated neurologic disorders.
BACKGROUND γ-Aminobutyric acid-B receptor antibodies (GABA(B)R-ab) were recently described in 15 patients with limbic encephalitis (LE), associated with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) or with concurrent glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) antibodies. We analyzed the frequency of GABA(B)R-ab in 147 patients with LE or neurologic syndromes associated with GAD-ab. METHODS We examined the presence o...
متن کاملSpinally mediated analgesic interaction between γ-aminobutyric acid B receptor agonist and glutamate receptor antagonists in rats
Background. Many mechanisms are involved in pain transmission in the spinal cord. Therefore, combination of drugs acting on different kinds of mechanisms might be useful for analgesia. We investigated the interaction betweenγ-aminobutyric acid （GABA）B receptor agonist, baclofen, and N-methyl-D-aspartate （NMDA） receptor antagonist, AP-5, orα-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid ...
متن کاملGamma-aminobutyric acid-B limbic encephalitis and asystolic cardiac arrest: a case report
BACKGROUND Gamma-aminobutyric acid-B receptor autoantibodies are becoming an increasingly recognized contributor to the spectrum of autoimmune limbic encephalitis. They are classically associated with seizures and behavioral disturbance, and may coexist with other autoantibodies. Many are paraneoplastic, most commonly associated with small cell lung cancer. Until now there have been no reports ...
متن کاملNon-paraneoplastic limbic encephalitis associated with NMDAR and VGKC antibodies.
INTRODUCTION Limbic encephalitis (LE) is characterised by seizures and impairment of short-term memory as well as behavioural and psychiatric symptoms such as anxiety, depression, personality change and hallucinations. Onset of these symptoms is typically subacute over a few weeks or months but may also evolve over a few days. In many patients, limbic encephalitis is a paraneoplastic syndrome u...
