Autoimmune encephalitis is a serious condition that causes inflammation in the brain, leading to various neurological problems. It often shows up as seizures and changes in behavior or mood. In addition to looking at the symptoms and medical history, doctors use different tests to help diagnose this condition. One important test looks for antibodies against a specific receptor called NMDA. This receptor is involved in many important brain functions like breathing, movement, learning, memory, and brain flexibility. Finding these antibodies can be a sign of autoimmune encephalitis, which is a type of inflammatory brain disease.
