Abstract

Muscle-specific kinase (MuSK) myasthenia gravis (MG) is often a more severe form of MG that presents with a rapid onset and prominent bulbar symptoms. Today, the diagnosis of MuSK MG is heavily reliant on the antibody (Ab) status of the patient. In most laboratories worldwide, the Abs are measured by radio immune precipitation assay (RIPA). We have developed another testing platform using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technology. Our aim was to measure the clinical sensitivity and specificity for two different MuSK Ab assays.
