Abstract excerpt
Leucine-rich, glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) is a secreted glycoprotein, mainly expressed in the brain, and involved in central nervous system development and physiology. Mutations of LGI1 have been linked to autosomal dominant lateral temporal lobe epilepsy (ADLTE). Recently auto-antibodies against LGI1 have been described as the basis for an autoimmune encephalitis, associated with specific motor and limbic...
