Antiamphiphysin Antibodies with Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma and Paraneoplastic Encephalomyel; itis
Ann Neurol 39:659-667, Dropcho,E.J., 1996
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction demonstrated expression of amphiphysin in 8 of 10 small-cell lung carcinomas and in 5 of 14 breast carcinomas.These observations highlight the clinical and serological heterogeneity of paraneoplastic central nervous system disorders:Patients with a given clinical syndrome may have difference antineuronal antibodies,and patients with a given autoantibody specificity have differing clinical presentations.
