Suspicion of paraneoplastic syndrome
Immunoblot
Antibodies against Tr (Trotter antigen, DNER) can be seen in breast or ovarian cancer, small cell lung cancer, thymoma, and Hodgkin's lymphoma and are associated with paraneoplastic encephalomyelitis or cerebellar degeneration.
Antibodies against Tr are graded as High-risk antibodies with a frequency of 90% of underlying cancer and a positive result yields a 3-point PNS score, according to Updated Diagnostic Criteria for Paraneoplastic Neurologic Syndromes.

Immunoblot
Antikroppar mot Tr (Trotter antigen, DNER) kan ses vid bröst- eller ovariecancer, småcellig lungcancer, thymom, samt vid Hodgkins lymfom och är associerade med paraneoplastisk encephalomyelit eller cerebellär degeneration.
Antikropparna riktade mot Tr bedöms vara High-risk antibodies med en förekomst på 90% för en underliggande cancer och positivitet ger 3 poäng i PNS score enligt Updated Diagnostic Criteria for Paraneoplastic Neurologic Syndromes.
