Anti-acetylcholine receptor (AChR) antibody positive generalized myasthenia gravis

Anti-acetylcholine receptor antibody positive generalized myasthenia gravis is a chronic autoimmune disorder affecting the neuromuscular junction across the peripheral nervous and muscular systems

Anti-acetylcholine receptor antibody positive generalized myasthenia gravis is a chronic autoimmune disorder affecting the neuromuscular junction across the peripheral nervous and muscular systems It is pathophysiologically defined by circulating pathogenic autoantibodies directed against nicotinic acetylcholine receptors on the postsynaptic muscle endplate, precipitating receptor blockade, internalization, and complement-mediated destruction of the neuromuscular junction

It is pathophysiologically defined by circulating pathogenic autoantibodies directed against nicotinic acetylcholine receptors on the postsynaptic muscle endplate, precipitating receptor blockade, internalization, and complement-mediated destruction of the neuromuscular junction Clinically, it presents with fluctuating, fatigable skeletal muscle weakness extending beyond the ocular musculature to involve bulbar, limb, neck, and respiratory muscles, with symptoms typically worsening after sustain...
