Paraneoplastic syndromes [PDF]
Paraneoplastic syndromes (i.e. organ/tissue disorders associated with cancer) affecting the nervous system are thought to be the result of an autoimmune response triggered by specific cancer antigens. Several of these antigens have recently been identified and include the Hu, Yo and Ri proteins, with the Hu antigens being the best studied. Immunization
