Autoantibodies to the NR1 subunit are a highly specific marker of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis. This form of encephalitis is one of the most common types of autoimmune encephalitis, typically affecting young women with ovarian teratomas; however, it also occurs in women without tumors, as well as in men and children.
When these antibodies make incorrect calls, identifying a naturally-occurring protein (or self protein) as foreign, they are called autoantibodies. Autoantibodies start the cascade of inflammation, causing the body to attack itself. The antibodies that target ânormalâ proteins within the nucleus of a cell are called antinuclear antibodies (ANA). Most of us have autoantibodies, but typically in small amounts. The presence of large amount of autoantibodies or ANAs can indicate an autoimmune disease.
