A Next‐Generation ELISA for the Detection of Anti‐(Para)Nodal Antibodies in Autoimmune Nodopathy and COVID‐19 Vaccinated Individuals

open access: yesJournal of the Peripheral Nervous System, Volume 31, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Autoimmune nodopathy (AN) is a subtype of antibody‐mediated inflammatory neuropathy targeting the node of Ranvier (NoR). Diagnosis requires detection of anti‐(para)nodal autoantibodies like contactin‐1 and neurofascin‐155 via ELISA or cell‐based assays, but protocols are inconsistent. Causes of node autoimmunity are unknown,
