Disease mechanisms in MS: the potassium channel KIR4.1--a potential autoantigen in MS.

Michael K Racke1.   

Abstract

Multiple sclerosis is an inflammatory, demyelinating disease in which antigens of the myelin sheath have been considered the autoimmune target. A recent study suggests that the potassium channel KIR4.1 is another potential autoantigen in some patients with multiple sclerosis, and might also be a target in other demyelinating diseases.
