Abstract:
:We report on the case of a 70-year-old man with primary macroglobulinemia who showed cranial polyneuropathy and extensive radiculoneuropathy. His serum contained an IgM lambda monoclonal antibody which reacted with both a high molecular weight protein in grey matter and purified myelin basic protein (MBP) on immunoblotting. In an immunohistochemical study, strong immunoreactivity was detected only in the cytoplasm of neurons and weak immunoreactivity was detected in myelin. These findings suggest that this antibody may be related to the pathogenesis of neuronal damage in patients with macroglobulinemia.
