Myasthenia gravis (MG) and its animal model experimental autoimmune myasthenia gravis (EAMG) are caused by autoantibodies against nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) in skeletal muscle. The production of anti-AChR antibodies is mediated by cytokines produced by CD4+ and CD8+ T helper (Th) cells.
