Parrot proventricular dilatation disease: a possible model of Guillain-Barré syndrome?
AbstractProventricular Dilatation Disease (PDD) affects parrots with clinico-pathological aspects similar to those of the Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), a human neurophathy. We observed that in sera of PPD-affected parrots antibodies to gangliosides were detectable, similarly to that observed for GBS, and that quantification of such antibodies could be
