The autoantibodies against retinal proteins and glycolytic enzymes were reported to be involved in the pathogenesis. This retrospective cohort study assessed the antiretinal autoantibody profles and their association with clinical outcomes of AIR patients in Thailand. We included 44 patients, 75% were females, with the overall median age of onset of 48 (17–74, IQR 40–55.5) years. Common clinical presentations were nyctalopia (65.9%), blurred vision (52.3%), constricted visual feld (43.2%), and nonrecordable electroretinography (65.9%). Underlying malignancy and autoimmune diseases were found in 2 and 12 female patients, respectively. We found 41 autoantibodies, with anti‑α‑enolase (65.9%) showing the highest prevalence, followed by anti‑CAII (43.2%), anti‑aldolase (40.9%), and anti‑GAPDH (36.4%). Anti‑aldolase was associated with male gender (P = 0.012, OR 7.11, 95% CI 1.54– 32.91). Anti‑CAII showed signifcant association with age of onset (P = 0.025, 95% CI − 17.28 to − 1.24), while anti‑α‑enolase (P = 0.002, OR 4.37, 95% CI 1.83–10.37) and anti‑GAPDH (P = 0.001, OR 1.87, 95% CI 1.32–2.64) were signifcantly associated with nonrecordable electroretinography. Association between the antibody profles and clinical outcomes may be used to direct and adjust the treatment plans and provide insights in the pathogenesis of AIR.

    SURVEY OF OPHTHALMOLOGY VOLUME 48 • NUMBER 1 • JANUARY–FEBRUARY 2003 MAJOR REVIEW Paraneoplastic Retinopathies and Optic Neuropathies Jane W. Chan, MD Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Neurology, University of Nevada School of Medicine, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Abstract. Unusual neuro-ophthalmologic symptoms and signs that go unexplained should warrant a thorough investigation for paraneoplastic syndromes. Although these syndromes are rare, these clinical manifestations can herald an unsuspected, underlying malignancy that could be treated early and aggressively. This point underscores the importance of distinguishing and understanding the various, sometimes subtle, presentations of ocular paraneoplastic syndromes. Outlined in this review article are diagnostic features useful in differentiating cancer-associated retinopathy, melanoma-associated retin- opathy, and paraneoplastic optic neuropathy. These must also be distinguished from non–cancer- related eye disorders that may clinically resemble cancer-associated retinopathy. The associated anti- bodies and histopathology of each syndrome are presented to help in the understanding of these autoimmune phenomena. Treatment outcomes from reported cases are summarized, and some poten- tial novel immunotherapies are also discussed. (Surv Ophthalmol 48:12–38, 2003. © 2003 by Else- vier Science Inc.

Case report: A 12-year-old boy presented with progressive visual field loss, nyctalopia, and flashing for three months. He had suffered from common cold two weeks before the onset of these symptoms. On the basis of clinical history and paraclinical findings, he was diagnosed with npAIR, and IVIG without immunosuppressive therapy was started. During the one-year follow-up period after the first course of IVIG, flashing disappeared completely. Visual acuity remained 10/10, but nyctalopia did not improve. Multimodal imaging showed no disease progression. Conclusion: Although established retinal degenerative changes seem irreversible in npAIR, IVIG may be a suitable choice to control the disease progression.

  • Autoantibody Against Transient Receptor Potential M1 Cation
    Wang et al. BMC Ophthalmology 2012, 12:56 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2415/12/56 CASE REPORT Open Access Autoantibody against transient receptor potential M1 cation channels of retinal ON bipolar cells in paraneoplastic vitelliform retinopathy Yujuan Wang1,2, Mones S Abu-Asab1, Wei Li3, Mary E Aronow4, Arun D Singh4 and Chi-Chao Chan1* Abstract Background: Paraneoplastic retinopathy is caused by the cross-reaction of neoplasm-directed autoantibodies against retinal antigens and results in retinal damage. Paraneoplastic vitelliform retinopathy, a presumed paraneoplastic retinopathy with features of atypical melanoma-associated retinopathy, has recently been reported in patients with metastatic melanoma. Ocular ultrastructure and its autoantibody localization of paraneoplastic vitelliform retinopathy are still indefinable. This is the first report of anti-transient receptor potential M1 antibody directly against human retinal bipolar dendritic tips in a melanoma patient with paraneoplastic vitelliform retinopathy. Case presentation: We present a pair of postmortem eyes of an 80-year-old male with metastatic cutaneous melanoma, who developed paraneoplastic vitelliform retinopathy. The autopsied eyes were examined with light microscopy, immunohistochemistry, and transmission electron microscopy. Microscopically, the inner nuclear layer and outer plexiform layer were the most affected retinal structures, with local thinning. The lesions extended to the outer nuclear layer, resulting in focal retinal degeneration, edema, and atrophy. No active inflammation or melanoma cells were observed. Immunohistochemistry showed tightly compact bipolar cell nuclei (protein kinase C alpha/calbindin positive) with blur/loss of ON bipolar cell dendritic tips (transient receptor potential M1 positive) in diffusely condensed outer plexiform layer. The metastatic melanoma cells in his lung also showed immunoreactivity against transient receptor potential M1 antibody.

  • Autoimmune Retinopathy: a Review Aristófanes Mendonça Canamary Jr.1* , Walter Yukihiko Takahashi2 and Juliana Maria Ferraz Sallum1
    Canamary Jr. et al. Int J Retin Vitr (2018) 4:1 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40942-017-0104-9 International Journal of Retina and Vitreous REVIEW Open Access Autoimmune retinopathy: A Review Aristófanes Mendonça Canamary Jr.1* , Walter Yukihiko Takahashi2 and Juliana Maria Ferraz Sallum1 Abstract Autoimmune retinopathy (AIR) is a rare and still poorly understood immune-mediated disease that may cause infam- mation from circulating autoantibodies against the retina. It may be related to history of autoimmune disease in the patient or in a family member or the presence of neoplastic disease in the individual. The disease may be subdivided into paraneoplastic and non-paraneoplastic AIR. When related to melanoma, it is referred to as MAR, and when related to other cancers, it is called CAR. The exact prevalence of AIR is unknown. It mainly afects older adults. Patients present with bilateral and asymmetric scotomas, photopsias, visual feld defects, with rapidly progressive visual loss in late onset. In the initial stage, fundus examination is unremarkable, and in late stages, there is limited retinal epithe- liopathy and vascular attenuation, with or without optic disc pallor, associated or not with intraocular infammation and with no evidence of degenerative retinal disease. A clinical investigation with detailed anamnesis and laboratory tests should be performed to search for an associated neoplasm. Ophthalmologic and complementary examina- tions such as full-feld electroretinogram, optical coherence tomography, visual feld and fundus autofuorescence, help the diagnosis. Blood tests to search for autoantibodies should be requested. Management consists of prolonged immunosuppression, which may be combined with antioxidant vitamins.
