Autoantigen diversity in the opsoclonus‐myoclonus syndrome
6 Jan 2003
Abstract excerpt
Despite circumstantial evidence that opsoclonus-myoclonus (OM) is often immune mediated, no specific autoantigen has been identified. Using sera of 21 patients with several types of OM (idiopathic, associated to small cell lung cancer, and associated to neuroblastoma), we probed a brainstem cDNA library to isolate target neuronal antigens. Thirty-seven clones coding for 25 proteins were isolated, with two groups...
