Inhibition of acetylcholine receptor function by seronegative myasthenia gravis non-IgG factor correlates with desensitisation.

15% of myasthenia gravis (MG) patients do not have antibodies against the acetylcholine receptor (AChR). Some of these "seronegative" MG patients have antibodies against muscle specific kinase (MuSK), and many have a non-IgG factor that acutely inhibits AChR function in a muscle-like cell...
