1. A method for diagnosing multiple sclerosis or a predisposition for multiple sclerosis in a subject, the method comprising
Contacting a sample obtained from said subject containing an anti-KIR4.1 antibody with a receptor specific for said anti-KIR4.1 antibody; and (b) detecting the formation of a receptor-anti-KIR4.1 antibody complex, wherein said receptor is selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO:2, KIR 4.1 protein SEQ ID NO:3, SEQ ID NO:4, SEQ ID NO:5, and an antibody binding to said anti-KIR4.1 antibody,
wherein the presence of an anti-KIR4.1 antibody in said sample is indicative of multiple sclerosis or a predisposition for multiple sclerosis. |
