Research Abstract |
Addition of the anti-GD1b antibodies from rabbits affected with sensory ataxic neuropathy to cultured rabbit dorsal root ganglia neurons caused morphological changes in the neuritis. Anti-GM1 antibodies from patients with axonal type of Guillain-Barre syndrome(GBS) directly influence the integrity of the lipid rafts and alter the signal transduction in the cells. Antibodies against LM1, a glycolipid localized in human peripheral nerve myelin, and such ganglioside complexes as LM1/GM1 and LM1/GD1b were detected in sera from patients with demyelinating type of GBS and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy.
