Myasthenia gravis.

N Willcox1.   

Abstract

The cause of the myasthenics' pathogenic autoantibody response against the muscle acetylcholine receptor is an intriguing puzzle involving the thymus and its epithelial tumours, and possibly a variety of cross-reacting epitopes. Another fascinating challenge is to find ways of selectively inhibiting this response in the patients.
