  • Title: Acute sensory ataxic neuropathy associated with monospecific anti-GD1b IgG antibody.
    Author: Pan CL, Yuki N, Koga M, Chiang MC, Hsieh ST.
    Journal: Neurology; 2001 Oct 09; 57(7):1316-8. PubMed ID: 11591857.
    Abstract:
    The authors describe two patients with acute sensory ataxic neuropathy. Both had a profound loss of proprioception and generalized areflexia. High titers of monospecific anti-GD1b IgG antibody were detected in their sera during the acute phase. Sensory ataxia resolved within 2 weeks after the onset. Taken together with the induction of experimental sensory ataxic neuropathy sensitized with GD1b ganglioside, GD1b may be a target molecule for autoantibody in some patients with acute sensory ataxic neuropathy.
