Parancoplastic opsoclonus-myoclonus-syndrome (OMS) both in children and adults is suspected to be the result of an autoimmune response directed against cross-reactive proteins of tumor and neuronal cells. We here characterised the binding and functional activities of anti-neuroblastoma antibodies in IgG fractions from 11 OMS children with and without neuroblastoma, IgG fractions from neuroblastoma without OMS (NB) and healthy children served as controls. Indirect immunoflorescence and Western blot revealed IgG binding to intracellular autoantigens in all OMS patients, but in only one of the controls (p
