Autoimmune cross-targeting hypothesis: that the layering of 2 infections on one target confuses the immune system into autoimmune attack. A virus marking the inside of the thymus and an infection like mycoplasmas marking the outside for myasthenia gravis
polio virus and thymus
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20368632
the d68 is a similar enterovirus...does it infect the thymus?
They were looking at enteroviruses as a diabetes trigger with a thymus connection for a while.
http://brainimmune.tumblr.com/post/65440027379/an-enterovirus-attacking-the-thymus-may-play-a-key but i believe only coxsackie has been connected. I think it is the only enterovirus that infects the pancreas
this MG looked like the post-polio syndrome...but was it a real overlap by the virus?

Mycoplasmas and viruses in MG???
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/689042
they didn't see any
Families will have MG and/or RA

Here are some enteroviruses in muscle biopsies

not the enterovirus we are looking at but related
