AChR phosphorylation and indirect inhibition of AChR function in seronegative MG.
BACKGROUND: Approximately 10% to 20% of patients with autoimmune MG do not have antibodies to the acetylcholine receptor (AChR), so-called seronegative MG (SNMG). IgG antibodies from up to 70% of SNMG patients bind to the muscle-specific receptor tyrosine kinase, MuSK. The plasmas and non-IgG fracti...
