Myasthenia gravis (MG) 4 is a disease of neuromuscular transmission characterized by weakness of striated muscles. The defect in neuromuscular transmission is mediated by autoantibodies which react with nicotinic acetycholine (AChR) receptors at postsynaptic myoneural junctions. In this review, we examine the immunopathogenesis of MG and consider various therapeutic strategies suggested by work in this area as well as by advances in our understanding of immunoregulation and autoimmunity.
