Abstract | PURPOSE OF REVIEW: RECENT FINDINGS: SUMMARY: There is much that needs to be done to define the role of these antibodies and to determine how they affect central nervous system function in vivo. These studies must be carried out so that appropriate treatments can be provided for the growing number of patients with possible antibody-mediated conditions.
