abstract = {The realization that autoantibodies can contribute to
dysfunction of the brain has brought about a paradigm shift
in neurological diseases over the past decade, offering up
important novel diagnostic and therapeutic opportunities.
Detection of specific autoantibodies to neuronal or glial
targets has resulted in a better understanding of central
nervous system autoimmunity and in the reclassification of
some diseases previously thought to result from infectious,
'idiopathic' or psychogenic causes. The most prominent
examples, such as aquaporin 4 autoantibodies in
neuromyelitis optica or NMDAR autoantibodies in
encephalitis, have stimulated an entire field of clinical
and experimental studies on disease mechanisms and
immunological abnormalities. Also, these findings inspired
the search for additional autoantibodies, which has been
very successful to date and has not yet reached its peak.
This Review summarizes this rapid development at a point in
time where preclinical studies have started delivering
fundamental new data for mechanistic understanding, where
new technologies are being introduced into this field, and -
most importantly - where the first specifically tailored
immunotherapeutic approaches are emerging.},
