  • Title: [Anticerebellar antibodies--anti-Hu and anti-Yo--in the diagnosis of paraneoplastic neurologic syndromes].
    Author: Grisold W, Drlicek M, Liszka U.
    Journal: Nervenarzt; 1991 Oct; 62(10):609-14. PubMed ID: 1749452.
    Abstract:
    The detection of antineuronal antibodies against cytoplasm and nuclei of Purkinje cells is considered to be an essential factor in the diagnosis of neurologic paraneoplastic syndromes. Published data rely on different immunological methods and relatively small numbers of patients. The clinical relevance of this phenomenon is not clear from the literature. A positive correlation between antibody detection and the appearance of neurologic paraneoplastic syndromes has been reported, but this finding has been questioned in critical reviews.
