Putative target antigens of the stereotyped intrathecal B cell response in multiple sclerosis
2026-01-03
Abstract excerpt
Intrathecal antibody production is a hallmark of multiple sclerosis (MS), yet the antigenic targets of these antibodies remain elusive. Intrathecal antibody-secreting cells in MS patients characteristically produce IgG1 antibodies carrying the G1m1 allotype and preferentially use IGHV4 heavy-chain genes paired with IGKV1 or IGKV3 light chains. This stereotyped pattern points to a common antigen-driven selection pr...
