Abstract

In dipeptidyl-peptidase-like protein 6 (DPPX) antibody-associated encephalitis, DPPX antibodies from serum and CSF target the extracellular subunit of the voltage-gated potassium channel 4.2. This targeting leads to a characteristic clinical triad comprising gastrointestinal symptoms (predominantly diarrhea), cognitive-psychiatric dysfunction, and manifestations of CNS hyperexcitability, with hyperekplexia being a more specific feature. This rare disease typically presents with a subacute or chronic course and often affects middle-aged and older individuals. Patients may have a weak association with certain hematologic malignancies, particularly lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Brain MRI typically shows normal findings or nonspecific white matter changes. DPPX antibody-associated encephalitis responds well to immunotherapy, and most patients ultimately present with a good prognosis. However, relapses can occur. To improve our understanding of this rare but treatable autoimmune encephalitis and avoid misdiagnosis, we conduct a systematic review and summarize the current knowledge of its clinical and paraclinical features, management, and prognosis.

期刊介绍: Neurology Neuroimmunology & Neuroinflammation is an official journal of the American Academy of Neurology. Neurology: Neuroimmunology & Neuroinflammation will be the premier peer-reviewed journal in neuroimmunology and neuroinflammation. This journal publishes rigorously peer-reviewed open-access reports of original research and in-depth reviews of topics in neuroimmunology & neuroinflammation, affecting the full range of neurologic diseases including (but not limited to) Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, ALS, tauopathy, and stroke; multiple sclerosis and NMO; inflammatory peripheral nerve and muscle disease, Guillain-Barré and myasthenia gravis; nervous system infection; paraneoplastic syndromes, noninfectious encephalitides and other antibody-mediated disorders; and psychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders. Clinical trials, instructive case reports, and small case series will also be featured.
