Anti-GM1 IgA antibodies in Guillain-Barré syndrome.

Abstract:

:Serum anti-GM1 IgA antibodies were detected in 15 of 53 (28%) patients with the acute Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) and in one of 26 (4%) patients with other neurological diseases. Although nine GBS patients had anti-GM1 IgA titers of 1:200 or less, six patients had titers of 1:800 or more. Some GBS patients with anti-GM1 IgA antibodies also had antibodies against GD1b or GM2 or both. The presence of markedly elevated anti-GM1 IgA was associated with a poor clinical outcome at 6 and 12 months following onset of the GBS. The possible pathogenetic role of anti-GM1 IgA antibodies remains to be established.
