We herein tested for autoantibodies against neurofascin (NF) 155, NF186, contactin-associated protein 1 and contactin-1 and investigated the autoantibody-related clinical features in 29 patients with CIDP from China.
The field of CIDP recently underwent a major change with the identification of autoantibodies directed against paranodal (CNTN1, CASPR1 and NF155) and nodal (NF186/140) proteins.
