The cerebrospinal fluid of a patient with Devic's syndrome contained antiglial fibrillary acidic protein antibody. The serum level of antibody was less than that in cerebrospinal fluid, and the antibody was probably synthesized within the central nervous system. Similar antibody was not found in another patient with Devic's syndrome or in patients with multiple sclerosis. The role of the antibody in the patient's illness is uncertain, but is one of the few instances in which antibody against a specific brain antigen has been described in human demyelinating disease.
视神经脊髓炎患者的脑脊液中含有抗胶质纤维酸性蛋白抗体。抗体的血清水平低于脑脊液中的水平，且该抗体可能是在中枢神经系统内合成的。在另一例视神经脊髓炎患者或多发性硬化症患者中未发现类似抗体。该抗体在患者疾病中的作用尚不确定，但这是人类脱髓鞘疾病中为数不多的描述针对特定脑抗原的抗体的实例之一。
