Folate receptor autoantibody (FRAA) has caught increasing attention since its discovery in biological fluids of patients with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but quantification and understanding of its function are still in their infancy. In this study, we aimed to quantify serum binding-FRAA and explore its relation with serum folate, vitamin B
