Antibodies to Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase Define a Form of Limbic Encephalitis
Ann Neurol 67:470-478, Malter,M.P., et al, 2010
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
High-titer GAD antibodies define a form of nonparaneoplastic LE. This is a chronic, nonremitting disorder and should be included in the differential diagnosis of patients with TLE and mediotemporal encephalitis. Therapeutic trials of other immunotherapies should be undertaken.
