Autoimmune Liver Antigen Profile, Serum

1 Day(s)

المجموعة المرجعية

An autoimmune liver disease panel is a group of tests that is done to check for autoimmune liver disease. An autoimmune liver disease means that the body's immune system attacks the liver. F-Actin Antibody, IgG by ELISA: F-actin IgG antibodies have been shown to have increased sensitivity for autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) but lower specificity than smooth muscle antibodies (SMA). F-actin IgG antibodies can also be seen in SMA-negative disease controls (non-AIH), especially in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis C infections. Some patients with AIH may be SMA-positive but negative for F-actin IgG. Consider testing for SMA by IFA if suspicion for AIH is strong. Liver-Kidney Microsome - 1 Antibody, IgG by ELISA: A positive result indicates the presence of IgG antibodies to recombinant human P450 2D6 and suggests the possibility of autoimmune hepatitis, type 2. A negative LKM-1 does not rule out the presence of autoimmune hepatitis, type 2.
