Relevance of Kappa and Lambda Free Light Chains in Autoimmune Astrocytopathy Associated With Anti‐GFAP Antibodies

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The kappa‐free light chain (κ‐FLC) index is known to be highly sensitive and specific for diagnosing multiple sclerosis (MS), while little is understood about lambda (λ)‐FLC. This study assessed the κ‐FLC and λ‐FLC indices in autoimmune glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) astrocytopathy.
