Abstract
BACKGROUND: Paraneoplastic neurological syndromes are rare conditions where an autoimmune reaction against the nervous system appears in patients suffering from a tumour, but not linked to the spreading of the tumour. A break in the immune tolerance is thought to be the trigger.Entities:

Fig. 1a, b Volcano plot of differentially expressed (DE) genes between paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration (PCD) related ovarian tumours and control ovarian tumours. In a, coloured in red, genes with p-value over 0.05 and logfold change absolute value over 1.1, in yellow, genes know to be DE between fresh-frozen and formalin-fixed paraffin embedded samples and in blue, CDR2L gene and related genes. In b, the coloured plot are the genes included in following Gene Ontology terms: GO:0021699 (red), GO:0042088 (purple), GO:0002448, GO:0032817 (green), and GO: 0050861 (blue). Most significant gene names are plotted. c Heatmap of the 1314 differentially expressed genes (rows) and 12 ovarian cancer samples related with an anti-Yo paraneoplastic syndrome (top panel, indicated in brown) and 733 ovarian cancer samples from public databases (top panel in blue). The heatmap to the left indicates z-scales expression values, and two columns to the right (base expr PCD and base expr non-PCD) express the log2 base mean expression of the 1314 genes in the ovarian cancer samples related to an anti-Yo paraneoplastic syndrome and the rest of the samples, respectively. The third column on the right highlights the 171 AIRE-related genes within the differentially expressed gene set. For AIRE-related genes with relatively high expression levels (larger than 50% quantile of all genes), the gene name is indicated as text labels
Fig. 2a, c Barplots representing log2 expression value of CDR1 (a), CDR2 (b), and CDR2L (c) genes across samples. Median values of the PCD samples and non-PCD samples are drawn. Proportions of the non-PCD samples exceeding the maximum PCD samples' expression value, or under minimum value avec written. Logfold change and p values are indicated under the legend
Fig. 31314 differently expressed genes when comparing ovarian samples associated with an anti-Yo PNS vs. the public transcriptomic databases of high-grade ovarian cancer. a karyogram depicting genomic localisation of the differentially expressed genes. b Distribution of the expected median genomic distance between the two genes in the genome (based on 1000 permutations selecting random sets of genes of the same size as in the list of the differentially expressed gene set). The red line depicts the median distance observed for 1314 genes belonging to the differentially expressed genes, which deviates from the null model (FDR = 5%). c Rainfall plot showing the gene-gene distance density (red dots), in accordance to the expected gene density (black line). d Zoom area of the highest density of differentially expressed genes next to CDR2L gene in the chr17q25.21 cytoband
Fig. 4a Boxplots with z-score of the distribution of the different cell types between PCD and non-PCD related ovarian tumour samples. Analysis was performed with CIBERSORT algorithm. Classification regarding adaptive immune system (on the left) and innate immune system (on the right) was made. Statistical significance is shown by “*”, and significant cells are written in bold. b pie chart representing the distribution of the immune cell types (mean values) in non-PCD samples (on the left) and PCD samples (on the right). Data from CIBERSORT analysis. c Heatmap of the histological subtypes scores. Annotation on columns correspond to the samples' phenotypes (PCD or non-PCD samples). Data from single sample gene set enrichment analysis on gene sets from the literature(20). Hierarchical clustering was used to cluster the samples. d Principal component analysis (PCA) was the histological subtypes results matrix. Plot using first and second PCA (explaining respectively 73.7 and 14.6% of variance) and coloured membership of PCD samples (blue) and non-PCD samples (orange). e: heatmap of CDR1, CDR2 and CDR2L genes expression across the brain. Data from the brainscope website using Allen brain institute project data. Brain is shown from coronal view through the cerebellum, with a 90° left rotation. Colour legend indicates expression value going from blue to red scale
