Antoine Laurent Jessé Bayle (born January 13, 1799 in Vernet / Basses-Alpes , † March 29, 1858 ) was a French psychiatrist and neuropathologist . He was a nephew of Gaspard Laurent Bayle .

Bayle studied medicine in Paris from 1815 and was supervised by Laënnec and Récamier , among others . After working at the Hôpital de la Charité under Laennec, he went to Antoine-Athanase Royer-Collard in the psychiatric hospital in Charenton-le-Pont near Paris. There he collected observations for his doctorate on inflammation of the middle meninges, defended in 1822 . Bayle was the first to describe the histological changes in the brains of patients who died of neurolues in his Recherches sur l'arachnitis chronique in 1822 . The late stage of neurolues, progressive paralysis , was named after him as Bayle's disease .

In 1824 he was appointed associate librarian, in 1827 associate professor ("agrégé") of the medical faculty. Bayle was editor of the multi-volume Bibliothèque de thérapeutique from 1828 to 1837 .
