Paraneoplastic Diseases of the Central Nervous System [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]
Paraneoplastic neurological syndromes are nonmetastatic complications of malignancy secondary to immune-mediated neuronal dysfunction or death. Pathogenesis may occur from cell surface binding of antineuronal antibodies leading to dysfunction of the ...

Cerebellar long-term depression and auto-immune target of auto-antibodies: the concept of LTDpathies
There is general agreement that auto-antibodies against ion channels and synaptic machinery proteins can induce limbic encephalitis. In immune-mediated cerebellar ataxias (IMCAs), various synaptic proteins, such as GAD65, voltage-gated Ca channel (VGCC),

Update on neurological paraneoplastic syndromes [PDF]
To provide an update on paraneoplastic neurologic syndromes (PNS), the involved tumors, and types of immune responses.PNS are a diverse group of syndromes that may present as a relatively isolated syndrome such as predominant cerebellar degeneration or limbic encephalitis, or with more complex phenotypes such as diffuse encephalomyelitis that affects ...

Paraneoplastic antigens as biomarkers for early diagnosis of ovarian cancer
Paraneoplastic syndromes are a group of rare disorders that can be triggered by an abnormal immune response to proteins from tumors of the lung, ovary, lymphatics, or breast. Paraneoplastic clinical syndromes affect

Psychiatric manifestations of paraneoplastic syndromes
Introduction Paraneoplastic syndromes (PS) result from indirect effects of neoplasms. In 50% of the cases the symptoms precede the diagnosis and run independently.

Autoimmunity in Paraneoplastic Neurological Syndromes
In patients with Paraneoplastic Neurological Disorders, the researcher detected several autoanti‐bodies reacting with neuronal antigens and tumors; their characteristics supported the hypothesis that autoimmunity plays a part in these diseases and gave impetus to the study of these neurological disorders.The relationship between detection of anti ...
