Autoimmune Meningitis and Encephalitis
Neurologic Clinics, 2022Meningitis and encephalitis are inflammatory syndromes of the meninges and brain parenchyma, respectively, and may be identified either by finding definitive evidence of inflammation on tissue pathology or by cerebrocpinal fluid (CSF) analysis showing pleocytosis or intrathecal antibody synthesis.

Immunoadsorption for autoimmune encephalitis
Atherosclerosis Supplements, 2017Autoimmune encephalitis is a severe inflammatory disorder of the brain. The discovery that several non-infectious forms of encephalitis are associated with autoantibodies was a breakthrough in the care of this previously untreatable group of patients. The correlation of antibody type and titer with pattern and severity of symptoms was essential for the

Autoimmune limbic encephalitis
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 2009Autoimmune limbic encephalitis (LE) can arise both by paraneoplastic and non-paraneoplastic mechanisms. Patients with LE usually have a subacute onset of memory impairment, disorientation and agitation, but can also develop seizures, hallucinations and sleep disturbance.

Autoimmune Encephalitis in Children
Pediatric Neurology, 2022Autoimmune encephalitis is a group of central nervous system (CNS) inflammatory disorders that most commonly affect young adults and children. These disorders are closely associated with antibodies against neuronal cell-surface proteins, receptors, and ion channels; however, some forms of the disorder have no known antibody at this time.

Autoimmune-mediated encephalitis
Neuroradiology, 2011Autoimmune-mediated encephalitis may occur as a paraneoplastic or as a non-paraneoplastic condition. The role of neuroimaging in autoimmune-mediated encephalitis has changed in the last decade partly due to improvements in sequence optimisation and higher field strength and partly due to the discovery of an increasing number of antibodies to neuronal ...

Autoimmune Encephalitis in Children
Journal of Pediatric Infectious Diseases, 2018AbstractAutoimmune encephalitis (AIE) can produce a very wide range of neuropsychiatric symptoms. A major challenge in diagnosis is that different symptoms may appear at different times and different levels of intensity, so the disease may mimic many other disorders. Pathogenesis is likely to be mediated by antibodies (Abs) to CNS proteins.

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1996
Rasmussen's encephalitis is a rare progressive pediatric epileptic syndrome. Recent evidence from experimental animals and patients with the disease suggests an important role for both humoral- and cell-mediated immune mechanisms in the pathogenesis of this disease. The glutamate receptor subunit, GluR3, may be an important autoantigen in the disease.

Autoimmune Limbic Encephalitis
2019Autoimmune encephalitis is now being widely recognized as a common and potentially treatable cause of encephalitis. The majority of the autoimmune encephalitis cases clinically present with limbic system dysfunction. Many neural autoantibody biomarkers of autoimmune limbic encephalitis have been described, and novel antibodies are being recognized ...

Mechanisms of autoimmune encephalitis
Current Opinion in NeurologyPurpose of review To provide an overview of the pathogenic mechanisms involved in autoimmune encephalitides mediated by antibodies against neuronal surface antigens, with a focus on NMDAR and LGI1 encephalitis. Recent findings In antibody-mediated encephalitides, binding of IgG ...

An evolving redefinition of autoimmune encephalitis
Autoimmunity Reviews, 2019Autoimmune encephalitis encompasses a wide variety of protean pathologic processes associated with the presence of antibodies against neuronal intracellular proteins, synaptic receptors, ion channels and/or neuronal surface proteins. This type of encephalitis can also involve children with complex patterns of seizures and unexpected behavioural changes,
