In myasthenia gravis (MG), the prototypic autoimmune disease, antibodies against acetylcholine receptors impair neuromuscular transmission and produce weakness. Although recognized for several hundred years, it has only been over the last three decades that effective treatments have become available for MG.This review summarizes the principles of ...

The cause of the myasthenics' pathogenic autoantibody response against the muscle acetylcholine receptor is an intriguing puzzle involving the thymus and its epithelial tumours, and possibly a variety of cross-reacting epitopes. Another fascinating challenge is to find ways of selectively inhibiting this response in the patients.

Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a rare neuromuscular junction disorder that is characterized by fatigable weakness of muscles. People with MG experience various clinical manifestations based on the muscles involved. MG can be autoimmune, paraneoplastic, congenital, medication-related, or transient in the neonatal period due to the passive placental transfer ...
