Immunohistochemistry was performed with rat brain sections using human CSF. Whole brains (left) and higher power views of the hippocampus (right) are shown for control (A, B), anti-NMDAR encephalitis (C, D), anti-LGI1 encephalitis (E, F), anti-GABA-B encephalitis (G, H), and anti-GAD65 (I, J). The cases with reactivity on brain section IHC showed characteristic staining of the synaptic layers of the hippocampus. GABA= γ-aminobutyric acid; GAD65 = glutamic acid decarboxylase; IHC = immunohistochemistry; LGI1 = leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1; NMDAR = NMDA receptor.
