Neuronal Antibodies and Associated Syndromes

الملخص EN

Introduction.

Multiple well-recognized conditions, such as Lambert–Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS) and myasthenia gravis (MG), have been associated with neuronal antibodies.

Materials and Methods.

A search was performed using Embase, PubMed, and CINAHL.

An initial search of each database was conducted using keywords and terms related to the aim of the current review.

Additional articles were obtained by examining the reference lists and citations in the selected records.

Results.

The studies identified through the search process used different designs and methods to explore neuronal antibodies and associated syndromes.

Previous studies have shown that neurological and psychiatric disorders can be mediated and influenced by various antibodies.

The identification of autoantibodies can help with the accurate diagnosis of conditions and commencement of early treatment.

Discussion.

A review of selected studies identified in the literature implicated that classic anti-neuronal antibodies, such as anti-Ri and anti-Hu, play a role in the development of neurological diseases.

More recent studies have indicated that other novel antibodies act on neuronal cell surface antigens to contribute to the development of neurological disorders.

Conclusion.

Existing research provides evidence revealing a spectrum of antibodies linked to the development and progression of neurological diseases.

However, further antibody testing and studies should be performed to validate the relationship between conditions and antibodies.
