Abstract

Previous studies on cases of MG thymoma determined that the tumor cells express self-antigens; however, their role in the manifestation of MG is not well understood. Keywords: myasthenia gravis; neuromuscular medullary thymic epithelial cells; single-cell RNA sequencing EN myasthenia gravis neuromuscular medullary thymic epithelial cells single-cell RNA sequencing 80 81 2 05/23/23 20230501 NES 230501 Autoimmune diseases lead to antibodies mistakenly recognizing and attacking host cells as foreign invaders. One such disease is myasthenia gravis (MG), where the antibodies target neuromuscular-associated proteins, including the acetylcholine receptor. [Extracted from the article]
