[Inflammatory demyelinating diseases if the peripheral nervous system: immunological concepts and experimental models].
Some inflammatory diseases of the peripheral nervous system, most prominently the Guillain-Barré syndrome, are currently regarded to be of autoimmune origin. Experimental models show clearly that the balance between cellular and humoral autoimmune reaction against peripheral myelin components significantly determines the appearance of the disease. Yet, important questions, such as target antigens of the antimyelin reaction are still unresolved.
