Specimen Required


Only orderable as part of a profile. For more information see:

ENS2 / Encephalopathy, Autoimmune/Paraneoplastic Evaluation, Serum

DMS2 / Dementia, Autoimmune/Paraneoplastic Evaluation, Serum

Useful For

Detecting phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A)-IgG in serum specimens

 

Evaluation of autoimmune/paraneoplastic neurological syndromes among patients presenting with movement disorders and encephalopathy

Testing Algorithm

If the indirect immunofluorescence (IFA) pattern suggests phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A) IgG, then the PDE10A antibody IFA titer will be performed at an additional charge.

Negative

Interpretation

A positive result is consistent with phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A) autoimmunity that manifests with autoimmune movement disorders or encephalitis. A paraneoplastic cause should be considered.
