They are a heterogenous group of autoantibodies directed against ds-dna, histones, SSA / Ro, SSB / La, Sm, Sm / RN, Scl-70, Jo-1 & Centromere. ANA s have also been detected in patients with Autoimmune Hepatitis (80%),rimary biliary cirrhosis (60%), Alcohol related liver disease (50%), Viral hepatitis B (40%). resence of ANA has also been detected in individuals taking certain drugs like Hydrallazine, Isoniazid, Chlorpromazine; family of SLE patients; healthy and elderly persons ANTI - ds DNA ANTIBODY, SERUM -- RESULT IN IU/mL REMARKS ---------------- ------------------------- <30 Negative ---------------- ------------------------- 30-75 Equivocal ---------------- ------------------------- >75 ositive -- 10.00 IU/mL <30.00 Anti double stranded DNA (ds DNA) antibodies are specific for SLE observed in 40-90% of these patients with active disease. American Rheumatoid arthritis association considers the presence of ds-dna antibody as a diagnostic criteria for SLE. These antibodies are directly involved in the disease process being deposited as DNA / Anti DNA immune complexes. This test is used for diagnosis and monitoring of SLE with atientreportscsuperanel.s_general_temlate01_sc (Version 7) age 1 of 6

They may be raised in patients with Discoid lupus erythematosus. All SLE patients may not show elevated ds-dna antibodies especially those at the peak of SLE exacerbation. In some cases the level may remain elevated even during the remission phase of the disease. CENTROMERE ANTIBODY, SERUM 20-30 Weak ositive >30 Strong ositive 3.00 Units <20.00 Centromere antibodies are associated with Scleroderma, a multisystem connective tissue disorder with vascular lesions and tissue fibrosis. atients with Systemic Sclerosis spontaneously produce autoantibodies against nuclear, nucleolar and mitochondrial antigens which are of diagnostic and prognostic significance. Autoantibodies to centromere proteins are present in 50-80% CREST subset; 25% patients with idiopathic Raynaud s phenomenon and 8% with diffuse form of the disease. Centromere antibodies are most often associated with lower frequency of pulmonary fibrosis and mortality although an increased risk for pulmonary hypertension has been observed.

Jo-1 antibodies are detected months before the outbreak of myositis suggesting a marker function for this antibody. Over 70% of patients with a positive result show signs of fibrosing alveolitis, polyarthritis, occasionally Raynaud s phenomenon or other signs of Scleroderma.

These antibodies can also be detected in 20-59% patients of connective tissue disorders and 13% patients with CREST syndrome. atients of Scleroderma with Scl-70 antibody positivity are associated with diffuse cutaneous involvement, increased frequency of pulmonary fibrosis and high mortality.

They usually occur in association with nuclear Ribonuclear proteins (nrn). SLE patients with presence of Anti Sm antibodies usually have associated renal disease and / or disorders of central nervous system. SSA/Ro ANTIBODY, SERUM 20-39 Weak ositive 40-80 Moderate ositive >80 Strong ositive 17.00 Units <20.00 atients with SLE may have antibodies to SSA/Ro alone or may have both SSA/Ro & SSB/La antibodies. resence of SSA/Ro antibody alone is commonly seen in association with HLA DR2 in patients less than 22 years of age at onset. resence of both SSA/Ro & SSB/La in SLE is associated with HLA DR3 and is seen in older patients more than 50 years of age at onset. SLE patients with SSA/Ro antibodies develop a much more serious renal disease and have a higher incidence of concomitant Anti DNA antibodies.

They are also seen in 6-15% cases of ANA positive SLE patients. resence of both SSB / La & SSA/Ro antibodies in SLE patients shows a lower incidence of renal disease and lower levels of concomitant Anti DNA antibodies. Detection of this antibody can precede the development of symptoms of Sicca syndrome by several years.

When Anti RN antibodies are found in higher titers in patients sera, usually in the absence of Anti smith antibodies, they are associated with Mixed Connective Tissue Disease (MCTD). SLE patients who have antibodies to only nrn have a lower frequency of DNA antibodies and lower incidence of clinically apparent renal disease. age 5 of 6 atientreportscsuperanel.s_general_temlate01_sc (Version 7)
