Limitations of a Commercial Assay as Diagnostic Test of Autoimmune Encephalitis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
Detection of neuronal surface antibodies (NSAb) is important for the diagnosis of autoimmune encephalitis (AE). Although most clinical laboratories use a commercial diagnostic kit (Euroimmun, Lübeck, Germany) based on indirect immunofluorescence on ...

Neuroinflammation in GAD65 Antibody‐Associated Epilepsy Measured Using [18F]DPA‐714 PET/MRI

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The timing for initiating immunotherapy in patients with glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD65) antibody‐associated epilepsy is a challenge. We used the translocator protein radioligand [18F]DPA‐714 and PET to evaluate brain microglial activation.

Autoimmune encephalitis: Early and late findings on serial MR imaging and correlation to treatment timepoints

European Journal of Radiology Open
Introduction MRI is negative in a large percentage of autoimmune encephalitis cases or lacks findings specific to an antibody. Even rarer is literature correlating the evolution of imaging findings with treatment timepoints.

Autoimmune Encephalitis Resembling Dementia Syndromes

Neurology: Neuroimmunology & Neuroinflammation, 2021
Objective As autoimmune encephalitis (AIE) can resemble neurodegenerative dementia syndromes, and patients do not always present as encephalitis, this study evaluates how frequently AIE mimics dementia and provides red flags for AIE in middle-aged and ...

A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of the Recurrence of Autoimmune Encephalitis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is a disease with a potential for recurrence, and patients receive immunotherapy to prevent it. However, there is no consensus on the duration of immunotherapy. This study aimed to determine the recurrence rate and identify the risk factors for AE to provide guidance on the duration of immunotherapy ...

Case of autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 3 complicated with anti‐N‐methyl‐D‐aspartic acid‐receptor encephalitis

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, 2021
Anti‐N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor (NMDA‐R) encephalitis is an autoimmune disorder in which autoantibodies in the limbic system bind to GluN1 subunits of NMDA‐Rs in the brain.
