Overview
Guillain Barre syndrome may be caused by Campylobacter jejuni, Cytomegalovirus, haemophilus influenza, epstein-Barr virus, Varicella zoster virus and HIV-1.
Causes
Life-threatening Causes
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. GBS has a different natural history in every patient based on age and the speed of symptoms occurrence, so it can lead to death or patients may fully recover no matter what the etiology is.[1][2]
Common Causes
- Campylobacter jejuni[3][4][5][6]
- Most common cause of gastroenteritis
- Most common infection associated with GBS
- There is a strong association between C. jejuni and AMAN type of GBS.
- The C. jejuni LPS contains a tetrasaccharide which is similar to GM1.
- C. jejuni can also cause MFS
- It has antigens similar to GQ1b which is found in ocular motor nerves so it can cause ophthalmoplegia.
- Cytomegalovirus[7][8][9]
- This virus can cause respiratory infection, mononucleosis and flu-like symptoms.
- The most common virus associated with GBS.
- It will mostly cause AIDP in young females.
- In some of the patients’ serum we can detect antibodies against GM2.
- Haemophilus influenza[10]
- It is mostly associated with AMAN type of GBS.
- There is a molecular similarity with ganglioside GM1.
