Abstract excerpt
Patients with herpes simplex virus (HSV) encephalitis (HSE) often develop neuronal autoantibody-associated encephalitis (AE) post-infection. Risk factors of AE are unknown. We tested the hypotheses that predisposition for AE post-HSE may be involved, including genetic variants at specific loci, human leucocyte (HLA) haplotypes, or the blood innate immune response against HSV, including type I interferon (IFN)...
