Excitatory Synaptic Autoimmunity

Excitatory Synaptic Autoimmunity is a form of autoimmune encephalitis characterized by the presence of autoantibodies that selectively target proteins involved in excitatory synaptic transmission, thereby disrupting glutamatergic signaling and promoting neuronal hyperexcitability leading to seizures.
