Abstract
Opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome associated with neuroblastoma (OMS-NB) is a refractory paraneoplastic syndrome which often remain neurological sequelae, and detailed pathogenesis has remained elusive. We encountered a pediatric patient with OMS-NB treated by immunosuppressed therapy who showed anti-glutamate receptor δ2 antibody and increased B-cells in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and multiple lymphoid follicles containing abundant Bcells in tumor tissue. Unbiased B-cell receptor repertoire analysis revealed identical B-cell clone was identified as the dominant clone in both CSF and tumor tissue. These identical B-cell clone may contribute to the pathogenesis of OMS-NB. Our results could facilitate the establishment of pathogenesis-based treatment strategies for OMS-NB.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
