“…Moreover, a severe form of autoimmune encephalitis with refractory seizures, status epilepticus, and antibodies (Abs) against α1, β3, and γ2 subunits of GABA A R has been reported as a new form of central nervous system (CNS) autoimmunity [ 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 ]. Several studies have demonstrated the pathogenic effects of these antibodies on GABA A R function [ 5 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ]. These Abs led to the reduction in synaptic GABA A R complexes, presumably via cross-linking and the subsequent internalization of the Ab-receptor complex [ 5 , 9 , 10 ].…”
