Anti-acetylcholine receptor antibody in aged individuals and in patients with Down's syndrome.

M Tanaka, T Miyatake.   

Abstract

Anti-acetylcholine receptor (AChR) antibodies were found in 9 of 50 sera from old patients with cerebrovascular disease (CVD) and in 9 of 38 sera from patients with Down's syndrome. Only one of 30 sera from young patients with CVD was positive. There were age-related changes in the positive rate and titers among Down's syndrome subjects. Anti-AChR antibody appeared associated with aging as did other autoantibodies.
