Autoantibodies to glutamic acid decarboxylase in patients with epilepsy are associated with low cortical GABA levels.
Antibodies to glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD), the major pathway for the synthesis of c-aminobutyric acid(GABA) in humans, are found at elevated levels in a subgroup of patients with chronic epilepsy. To test whether the antibodies were associated with changes in cortical GABA levels we used magne...
