Circulating autoantibodies against cardiovascular membrane receptors h
ave been repeatedly demonstrated in a subgroup of sera of patients wit
h idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. This short review summarizes the
clinical findings on anti-receptor autoantibodies in patients with dil
ated cardiomyopathy.
