The immunological aspects of autoantibodies directed against paranodal and nodal proteins form a prominent field of research
Contactin-1 and contactin-1 associated protein, gliomedin and neurofascin (NF) are Ranvier node-related proteins[1,2]. Antibodies against these proteins have been identified in chronic demyelinating conditions, such as multiple sclerosis (MS) and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP); and in acute demyelinating diseases such as Guillain-Barre syndrome[3,4]
