BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Neural antibodies are detected by tissue-based indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) in Mayo Clinic's Neuroimmunology Laboratory practice, but the process of characterizing and validating novel antibodies is lengthy. We report our assessment of human protein arrays.
METHODS: Assessment of arrays (81% human proteome coverage) was undertaken using diverse known positive samples (17 serum and 14 CSF). Samples from patients with novel neural antibodies were reflexed from IFA to arrays. Confirmatory assays were cell-based (CBA) or line blot. Epitope mapping was undertaken using phage display immunoprecipitation sequencing (PhiPSeq).
RESULTS: Control positive samples known to be reactive with linear epitopes of intracellular antigens (e.g., ANNA-1 [anti-Hu]) were readily identified by arrays in 20 of 21 samples. By contrast, 10 positive controls known to be enriched with antibodies against cell surface protein conformational epitopes (e.g., GluN1 subunit of NMDA-R) were indistinguishable from background signal. Three antibodies, previously characterized by other investigators (but unclassified in our laboratory), were unmasked in 4 patients using arrays (July-December 2022): Neurexin-3α, 1 patient; regulator of gene protein signaling (RGS)8, 1 patient; and seizure-related homolog like 2 (SEZ6L2), 2 patients. All were accompanied by previously reported phenotypes (encephalitis, 1; cerebellar ataxia, 3). Patient 1 had subacute onset of seizures and encephalopathy. Neurexin-3α ranked high in CSF (second ranked neural protein) but low in serum (660th overall). Neurexin-3α CBA was positive in both samples. Patient 2 presented with rapidly progressive cerebellar ataxia. RGS8 ranked the highest neural protein in available CSF sample by array (third overall). RGS8-specific line blot was positive. Patients 3 and 4 had rapidly progressive cerebellar ataxia. SEZ6L2 was the highest ranked neural antigen by arrays in all samples (CSF, 1, serum, 2; Patient 3, ranked 9th overall in CSF, 11th in serum; Patient 4, 6th overall in serum]). By PhIPSeq, diverse neurexin-3α epitopes (including cell surface) were detected in CSF from patient 1, but no SEZ6L2 peptides were detected for serum or CSF samples from Patient 3.
DISCUSSION: Individualized autoimmune neurologic diagnoses may be accelerated using protein arrays. They are optimal for detection of intracellular antigen-reactive antibodies, though certain cell surface-directed antibodies (neurexin-3α and SEZ6L2) may also be detected.
