Pediatric opsoclonus-myoclonussyndrome (OMS) is a rare autoimmune disorder of which 50% are associated with neuroblastoma (NB). We investigated whether surface-binding autoantibodies in OMS can enhance natural killer (NK) cell-mediated cytotoxicity in these patients. OMS immunoglobulin G (IgG) bound to NB cell lines and NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity to NB cells was enhanced after preincubation with OMS-IgG, but not IgG from NB without OMS or healthy controls. Activation of NK cells by surface-binding autoantibodies may be an additional mechanism of antitumor immunity in children with NB and OMS.
