Description |
MG is a disease characterized clinically by muscle weakness and fatigability, caused by a reduction in the number of available ACh receptors at NMJs. Receptor depletion is mediated by one or more antibodies directed against ACh receptors or other NMJ postsynaptic membrane constituents, resulting in impaired neuromuscular transmission. |
