New insights into neuropathology and pathogenesis of autoimmune glial fibrillary acidic protein meningoencephalomyelitis
Recent publication
Autoimmune GFAP astrocytopathy is a rare form of non-infectious meningoencephalitis. The results of 2 autopsies and 9 biopsies in the central nervous system of patients provide new pathophysiological insights into the disease. St. Pölten University Hospital also provided data for the study, which was funded by the Austrian Science Fund and the Austrian Society of Neurology. Results are freely available in the journal Acta Neuropathologica.
