The incidence of ANA and ETI-dsDNA detected by enzyme immunoassays and indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA).
While the SLE (Systemic Lupus Erythematosus) specificity of ANA is low, that of anti-dsDNA autoantibodies is high. The DNA used in the assay must be double stranded: autoantibodies to single-stranded (ss) DNA exist in many diseases and specific to none. The prevalence (70%) of anti-dsDNA autoantibodies is much higherin SLE, giving a higher diagnostic sensitivity than the similarly disease-speci...
متن کاملAnti-RNA polymerase III antibodies in patients with systemic sclerosis detected by indirect immunofluorescence and ELISA
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the analytical performance of an ELISA for the detection of anti-RNA polymerase III antibody (ARA) and to assess IIF as a method for identifying this antibody. METHODS A commercially available ELISA was used to assess the presence of ARA in sera from 1018 SSc patients. The sera had been divided into sub-populations based on the presence of specific autoantibodies, ANA p...
متن کاملEndemic pemphigus foliaceus (fogo selvagem) and pemphigus vulgaris: immunoglobulin G heterogeneity detected by indirect immunofluorescence.
UNLABELLED Pemphigus are autoimmune intraepidermal blistering diseases in which immunoglobulin G (IgG) autoantibodies are directed against desmosomal glycoproteins. The aim of this study was to determine the IgG subclass profile of endemic pemphigus foliaceus (fogo selvagem) and pemphigus vulgaris utilizing indirect immunofluorescence. PATIENTS AND METHODS Twenty-five patients with pemphigus ...
متن کاملAnaerobic microorganisms in root canals of human teeth with chronic apical periodontitis detected by indirect immunofluorescence.
Aiming to assess the presence of selected anaerobic microorganisms in root canals of human teeth with chronic apical periodontitis. 25 central and lateral upper incisors presenting with radiographic evidence of chronic apical periodontitis were studied. The pulp chamber was opened under aseptic conditions and samples of the root canal content were collected with sterile absorbent paper points, ...
متن کاملTyping Haemophilus ducreyi by indirect immunofluorescence assay.
Rabbits were inoculated with untreated whole cells of 16 strains of Haemophilus ducreyi. Homologous titres in an indirect immunofluorescence test ranged from 1/320 to 1/1280. No cross reactions, or very few, were observed between antisera to these strains and 22 other (possible taxonomically related) species, strains, and genera. A large diversity in types of antigen was observed among the stra...
