Background and purpose
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) is a heterogeneous autoimmune disorder critically lacking diagnostic biomarkers. Autoantibodies to nodal and paranodal components have recently been described in a small subset of patients. Here, the diagnostic value of immune reactivity toward the myelin compartment was investigated.

Antibodies to Contactin-1 and Neurofascin 155 (Nfasc155) have recently been associated with subsets of patients with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). Contactin-1 and Nfasc155 are cell adhesion molecules that constitute the septate-like junctions observed by electron microscopy in the paranodes of myelinated axons. Antibodies to Contactin-1 have been shown to affect the localization...
