Diagnosis of autoimmune diseases
Tests:
Antinuclear antibodies (ANA, primary marker of autoimmunity)
Antibodies to double-stranded DNA (Anti-dsDNA)
Anti-Sm (specific marker for SLE)
Anti-Ro/SSA, Anti-La/SSB
Rheumatoid factor (RF)
Antibodies to IgG
Anti-CCP (ACPA)
ANCA (antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies)
Anti-Scl-70 (antibodies to topoisomerase I)
Anti-TPO, Anti-Tg (thyroid antibodies)
Anti-phospholipid antibodies (APA)
These tests are used for diagnosing autoimmune diseases, determining the activity and stages of diseases, and assessing the state of the immune system. Autoimmune diseases develop when the immune system starts attacking the body's own tissues. Specific antibody tests are used for their diagnosis. Determining ANA, Anti-dsDNA, Anti-Sm, and other markers helps identify systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma, Sjögren's syndrome, autoimmune thyroiditis, and antiphospholipid syndrome. These tests are indispensable for early diagnosis, clarifying the diagnosis, and monitoring autoimmune pathologies.
