Test Details:
IgA subclasses test is a blood test that measures the levels of different subclasses of immunoglobulin A (IgA) in the body. IgA is an antibody that plays a crucial role in the immune system’s defense against infections. There are two main subclasses of IgA, IgA1 and IgA2, which have slightly different functions. The test is usually ordered when there is a suspected immune deficiency or autoimmune disorder, as abnormalities in IgA subclass levels can indicate underlying immune system problems. It can also be used to monitor the response to treatment in certain conditions.
The test involves taking a blood sample, usually from a vein in the arm. The sample is then sent to a laboratory for analysis. Results are usually available within a few days. Abnormal levels of IgA subclasses can indicate different conditions. For example, low levels of IgA1 may be seen in certain autoimmune disorders, while low levels of IgA2 may be associated with respiratory infections. High levels of IgA1 can be seen in conditions like multiple myeloma, while high levels of IgA2 may be seen in allergic diseases.
It is important to note that the interpretation of IgA subclass test results should be done by a healthcare professional, as the levels can vary depending on various factors such as age, gender, and overall health.
