Chronic Pain as a Manifestation of Potassium Channel-Complex Autoimmunity
Neurol 79:1136-1144, Klein, C.J.,et al, 2012
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Chronic idiopathic pain is a syndromic manifestation of VGKC-complex autoimmunity. Hyperexcitability of nociceptive pathways is implicated. CASPR2-lgG significantly associates with pain, but in most patients the antigenic VGKC-complex molecule remains to be determined. VGKC-complex autoimmunity represents an important new direction for pain research and therapy.
