What does this test Anti Nuclear Antibody (ANA) Test By IFA (HEP-2) identify?

Anti Nuclear Antibody (ANA) Test By IFA (HEP-2)

The Anti Nuclear Antibody (ANA) Test By IFA (HEP-2) is a laboratory test that identifies the presence of autoantibodies that target the cell nucleus. These autoantibodies are commonly found in individuals with autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren's syndrome, and other connective tissue diseases.

During the test, a patient's blood sample is collected and exposed to cells from the HEp-2 cell line, which are derived from human laryngeal carcinoma cells. If the patient has anti-nuclear antibodies, they will bind to the cell nuclei causing a characteristic pattern to form under a fluorescent microscope. The patterns observed can provide valuable information about the specific autoimmune disease present and help guide further diagnostic and treatment decisions.

The Anti Nuclear Antibody (ANA) Test By IFA (HEP-2) is a valuable tool in the diagnosis and monitoring of autoimmune diseases and is often used in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory tests to provide a comprehensive assessment of a patient's autoimmune status.

Why is this test Anti Nuclear Antibody (ANA) Test By IFA (HEP-2) taken?

Anti Nuclear Antibody (ANA) Test By IFA (HEP-2)

The Anti Nuclear Antibody (ANA) Test By IFA (HEP-2) is taken to help diagnose autoimmune disorders. ANA test detects the presence of antibodies that target the nucleus of cells in the body. These antibodies are produced by the immune system when it mistakenly attacks the body's own tissues. ANA test is commonly used to diagnose systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and other autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren's syndrome, and scleroderma.

ANA test may be ordered if a person shows symptoms of autoimmune disorders such as joint pain, fatigue, skin rashes, or fever. It may also be ordered to monitor the progression of an autoimmune disease and to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment.
