Test Details


Use

The ANA test detects autoantibodies that bind to the nuclear components of HEp-2 cells. A positive ANA titer is not specific, but indicates the presence of one or more autoantibodies. Profiles of specific autoantibodies have diagnostic and potential prognostic utility for several autoimmune diseases.

RDL’s ANA 12 Profile Helps Differentiate Between 8 Autoimmune Disease States:

SLE

• ANA by IFA

Tests with high specificity

• Anti-dsDNA by Farr

• Anti-SM

Tests with moderate specificity

• Anti-Ro

• Anti-La

• C3 & C4 Complements

• Anticardiolipin IgG, IgA & IgM

Sjogren’s Syndrome

• Anti-Ro

• Anti-La

Mixed Connective Tissue Disease (MCTD)

• Anti-U1 RNP

Limited Scleroderma (CREST)

• Anti-Centromere

Diffuse Scleroderma

• Anti-SCL-70 by EIA, confirmed by ID

Autoimmune Thyroid Disease
