Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor antibody

Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease with approximately 10% to 15% of patients with thymoma. The diagnosis of thymoma mainly relies on imaging examinations such as chest CT, but it is easy to miss the diagnosis of early and small thymoma, and most of the MG patients with thymoma have increased nAchR-Ab titer. In recent years, studies have found that myasthenia gravis and the synaptic acetylcholine receptor (ACHR) at the neuromuscular junction are closely related to their corresponding autoantibody damage.
