NMDA Receptor Antibody, Serum near me in Thane

The NMDA Receptor Antibody, Serum test measures the level of antibodies against the NR1 subunit of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors in the blood. These antibodies indicate that the immune system may be mistakenly targeting the brain’s NMDA receptors, leading to neurological dysfunction.

High levels of NMDA receptor antibodies may suggest autoimmune encephalitis or other antibody-mediated neurological disorders. Detection of these antibodies allows clinicians to confirm a diagnosis and initiate targeted treatment, potentially reversing or reducing neurological symptoms. Low or absent levels usually indicate that NMDA receptor autoimmunity is unlikely.
