Abstract
Methods of detecting antibody to GM1 ganglioside in a sample, comprising covalent linkage of GM1 ganglioside to a solid-phase reactant, are disclosed. The methods of detecting antibody to GM1 ganglioside can be used in methods of diagnosing motor neuropathies, such as multifocal motor neuropathy or immune-mediated motor neuropathy, in an individual. The amount of antibody specific to GM1 ganglioside in a test sample from a individual is measured; a titer of antibody to GM1 ganglioside that is greater than 1,800 is indicative of disease.
