ABSTRACTThis article presents a rationale for the hypothesis that an autoimmune mechanism might be involved in the pathogenesis of some forms of obsessive-compulsive aborder (OCO). Existing clinical studies suggesting that some individuals with OCD may have an autoimmune-mediated disorder are briefly summarized. A case example where intravenous immunoglobulin G has been successfully used to treat an adult with OCD spectrum disorder is presented. Preclinical data demonstrating that fragments from the group Αβ hemolytic streptococcus cell wall M proteins can generate antibodies that bind to rat and human tissue are also presented.
