Clinical characteristics of patient with GFAP-IgG: A Review of 31 Patients from Two Tertiary Referral Centers in China.

The clinical manifestations of GFAP-IgG exhibit a wide range of phenotypes that lack specificity. These findings emphasize the significance of not exclusively relying on the presence of antibodies to diagnose GFAP-A, but rather integrating them with the clinical phenotypes. GFAP-IgG testing enables the diagnosis of autoimmune GFAP astrocytopathy, a treatable autoimmune disease affecting the central nervous system. This condition provides opportunities for investigating innovative mechanisms of CNS autoimmunity and inflammation.
