Article Synopsis
- Spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to long-term neurological and systemic issues, including autoimmunity that affects recovery.
- Researchers found that autoantibodies, which increase one month after SCI, were already present in healthy individuals and target unusual proteins in the spinal cord.
- The study identified 16 specific self-antigens related to changes following SCI, suggesting that these autoantibodies could explain the development of autoimmunity and pinpoint new areas for future research.
