Autoimmune paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration: immunohistological localization of antibody-binding sites.

Sera from 3 patients with breast or ovarian tumors and paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration (PCD) contained anti-Purkinje cell antibodies (PCAbs) which also bind to other neurons on frozen sections of adult rodent brain. PCAbs tested on new-born rodent (rabbit, rat, mouse) brain tissue detected only oligodendrocyte-like cells (ODLC) in the white matter and allowed us to speculate on the nature of the antigenic structure in the neuronal cytoplasm. All these PCAbs appear histochemically identical and recognize antigens which belong to so-called " Yo" proteins.[1]
