Abstract

Myasthenia Gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder of neuromuscular transmission characterized by the presence of autoantibodies directed against acetylcholine receptor (AChR), which are detected in more than 85 % of patients’ sera (1). The role of the thymus in MG has been strongly suggested by the favorable clinical effects of thymectomy and by the high incidence of thymic abnormalities (15–20 % thymomas and 50 % hyperplastic thymuses) (2).KeywordsDouble Label ExperimentThymic HyperplasiaThymic LymphocyteThymic AbnormalityHigh Proliferative ResponseThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
