    Catalytic Antibodies May Contribute to Demyelination in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

    Abstract: Here we report preliminary data demonstrating that some patients with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) may have catalytic autoantibodies that cause the breakdown of myelin basic protein (MBP). We propose that these MBP-degradative antibodies are important to...
