Article Abstract

Experiments on rats showed that neurodegenerative brain damage caused by administration of neurotoxic fragment of β-amyloid protein Aβ25-35 in a dose of 2 μg into Meynert giant cell nucleus leads to long-term memory impairment in rats. Intranasal administration of antibodies to glutamate in a dose of 300 μg/kg 1 h after damage restores learning capacity of the experimental animals in the conditioned passive avoidance paradigm.

Background: Coexistence of autoimmune encephalitis (AE) with multiple autoantibodies is of particular concern because overlying antibodies may cause variation of clinical manifestations. Coexistence of anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) and anti-Gamma-aminobutyric acid-α-receptor (GABAAR) antibodies in AE was rare.

Case Presentation: A 44-year-old female patient presented to our hospital due to cognitive decline for 4 years, seizures, slowed speech and depression for 2 months.

Autoimmune polyendocrine syndromes (APS) is a rare group of disorders caused by impaired function of multiple endocrine glands due to disruption of immune tolerance. Of which, type 2 (APS-2) is the most common. Glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) is the rate-limiting enzyme for the synthesis of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA).

Autoimmune polyglandular syndromes (APS) are characterized by associations of two or more autoimmune diseases (AID). APS type 3 is characterized by the presence of autoimmune thyroid disease associated with other AID, excluding adrenal gland involvement. Here we report a case of a 64-year-old male, with history of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), diagnosed at the age of 32, who was referred to a Diabetes consultation in 2014 due to poor metabolic control.

Background: Autoimmune encephalitis associated with anti-GluK2 antibodies is a recently identified condition, typically characterized by cerebellar ataxia. This case report presents a unique clinical manifestation involving involuntary movements and emotional dysregulation, expanding the known phenotype spectrum.

Case Presentation: A 60-year-old woman presented with a two-year history of involuntary movements predominantly affecting her lower limbs and facial muscles, occasionally accompanied by hysterical shouting.

Circulating sexual stages of ) can be transmitted from humans to mosquitoes, thereby furthering the spread of malaria in the population. It is well established that antibodies can efficiently block parasite transmission. In search for naturally acquired antibodies targets on sexual stages, we established an efficient method for target-agnostic single B cell activation followed by high-throughput selection of human monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) reactive to sexual stages of in the form of gametes and gametocyte extracts.
