GAD-65 Antibody Test is a diagnostic assay used to detect the presence of antibodies against glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD-65) in the blood. GAD-65 is an enzyme involved in synthesizing gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). This neurotransmitter inhibits nerve signaling in the brain. Elevated levels of GAD-65 antibodies are associated with autoimmune conditions such as type 1 diabetes and Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS), a rare neurological disorder characterized by muscle stiffness and spasms. This test aids in diagnosing these autoimmune disorders. It helps guide treatment decisions, including immunosuppressive therapy, to manage symptoms and prevent disease progression.
