Antibodies against MAPs

Antibodies against MAPs (Microtubule-Associated Proteins) are immune proteins that mistakenly target and attack MAPs, which are important for maintaining cell structure and transport inside cells. This immune response can lead to cellular dysfunction and has been linked to certain neurological diseases. Essentially, the body's immune system is mistakenly identifying these proteins as threats, potentially contributing to disease processes by disrupting the normal functions of neurons and other cells.
