CONT

Les anticorps dirigés contre des molécules aux fonctions définies prennent une place grandissante en immunopathologie. Les autoanticorps antirécepteurs jouent un rôle apparemment central dans la myasthénie (récepteur de l'acétylcholine), la maladie de Basedow (récepteur de la TSH) et peut-être dans certaines formes de diabète (récepteur de l'insuline).
