Laboratory assay overview
A comprehensive approach to detection of known antineuronal autoantibodies aids the diagnosis of paraneoplastic syndromes and autoimmune encephalopathies and related conditions. Identification of specific antineuronal autoantibodies may direct evaluation for idiopathic autoimmune disease or underlying often occult malignancy. Characterization of autoantibody specificity may allow syndromic classification and assist in diagnosis and management. Antineuronal antibodies are detected and characterized based on indirect immunofluorescence staining pattern on multiple neuronal, non-neuronal tissues, and transformed substrate cells, and radioimmunoassays, and line blot analysis.
