Test ID GID2 Gastrointestinal Dysmotility, Autoimmune/Paraneoplastic Evaluation, Serum


Ordering Guidance


Multiple neurological phenotype-specific autoimmune/paraneoplastic evaluations are available. For more information as well as phenotype-specific testing options, refer to Autoimmune Neurology Test Ordering Guide.

 

When more than one evaluation is ordered on the same order number the duplicate will be canceled.

 

For a list of antibodies performed with each evaluation, see Autoimmune Neurology Antibody Matrix.

 

This test should not be requested in patients who have recently received radioisotopes, therapeutically or diagnostically, because of potential assay interference. The specific waiting period before specimen collection will depend on the isotope administered, the dose given, and the clearance rate in the individual patient. Specimens will be screened for radioactivity prior to analysis. Radioactive specimens received in the laboratory will be held 1 week and assayed if sufficiently decayed or canceled if radioactivity remains.



Necessary Information


Provide the following information:

-Relevant clinical information

-Ordering provider name, phone number, mailing address, and e-mail address



Specimen Required


Patient Preparation: For optimal antibody detection, specimen collection is recommended prior to initiation of immunosuppressant medication or intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) treatment.

Supplies: Sarstedt Aliquot Tube, 5 mL (T914)

Collection Container/Tube:

Preferred: Red top

Acceptable: Serum gel

Submission Container/Tube: Plastic vial

Specimen Volume: 4 mL

Collection Instructions: Centrifuge and aliquot serum into a plastic vial.


Useful For

Investigating unexplained weight loss, early satiety, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, constipation, or diarrhea in a patient with a past or family history of cancer or autoimmunity

 

Directing a focused search for cancer

 

Investigating gastrointestinal symptoms that appear in the course or wake of cancer therapy, not explainable by recurrent cancer, metastasis, or therapy; detection of autoantibodies on this profile helps differentiate autoimmune gastrointestinal dysmotility from the effects of chemotherapy

 

Detecting early evidence of cancer recurrence in previously seropositive patients who have a rising titer of 1 or more autoantibodies

Testing Algorithm

If client requests or if the immunofluorescence assay (IFA) patterns suggest collapsin response-mediator protein-5 (CRMP-5)-IgG, then the CRMP-5-IgG IFA titer and CRMP-5-IgG Western blot will be performed at an additional charge.

 

If the IFA pattern suggests antineuronal nuclear antibody (ANNA)-1, then the ANNA-1 immunoblot, ANNA-1 titer, and ANNA-2 immunoblot will be performed at an additional charge.

 

If the IFA pattern suggests AP3B2 adaptor protein 3 beta2) antibodies, then the AP3B22 cell binding assay (CBA) and AP3B22 titer will be performed at an additional charge.

 

If the IFA pattern suggests PCA-2 antibody, then the PCA-2 IFA titer will be performed at an additional charge.

 

If dipeptidyl-peptidase-like protein-6 antibody (DPPX) antibody CBA result is positive, then the DPPX titer will be performed at an additional charge.

Neuron-restricted patterns of IgG staining that do not fulfill criteria for ANNA-1, CRMP-5-IgG, or PCA-2 may be reported as "unclassified anti-neuronal IgG." Complex patterns that include nonneuronal elements may be reported as "uninterpretable."

 

CRMP-5 titers lower than 1:240 are detectable by recombinant CRMP-5 Western blot analysis. CRMP-5 Western blot analysis will be done on request on stored serum (held for 4 weeks). This supplemental testing is recommended in cases of chorea, vision loss, cranial neuropathy, and myelopathy. Call 1-800-533-1710 to request CRMP-5 Western blot.
