概要 | Ganglioside complexes (GSCs) are known as target antigens in Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). To elucidate the clinical importance of the anti-GSC antibodies in GBS, we investigated serum antibodies to GSCs containing two of the gangliosides, GM1, GD1a, GD1b and GT1b, and analyzed clinical features of anti-GSC-positive GBS patients. Thirty-nine (17%) of 234 GBS patients had IgG anti-GSC antibodies. Anti-GSC-positive GBS had antecedent gastrointestinal infection and lower cranial nerve deficits more frequently than control GBS. The presence of antibody specificity to GD1a/GD1b and/or GD1b/GT1b was significantly associated with severe disability and a requirement for mechanical ventilation. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.
