Abstract:
Tourette syndrome is a chronic childhood-onset neuropsychiatric disorder,immune abnormality in Tourette syndrome may play a role in some susceptible children. Some researches suggest that bacterial infections produce antineuronal autoantibodies that can recognize and attack the central nervous system and cause dysfunction. And five criteria can be used experimentally to establish a pathogenic role for autoantibodies in neurologic disorders .
