Acetylcholine Receptor Auto Antibodies

Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a neuromuscular disorder characterized by muscle weakness, most commonly due to auto Antibodies-mediated loss of functional acetylcholine receptors (AChR) in the neuromuscular junction. This assay aids in the differential diagnosis of MG-like muscle weakness, in differentiating between generalized MG and ocular MG, and in monitoring therapeutic response. If binding antibodies are negative, assays for blocking and modulating antibodies should be considered.
