Test Details
The MYOSITIS PROFILE EXTENDED IgG: 16 ANTIGENS test is a blood test that is used to help diagnose and monitor autoimmune myositis, which is a group of muscle diseases characterized by inflammation and weakness of the muscles.
This test measures the levels of specific antibodies called IgG antibodies against 16 different antigens. These antigens include Jo-1, PL-7, PL-12, EJ, OJ, SRP, Mi-2, MDA-5, TIF-1gamma, NXP-2, SAE, HMGCR, Ku, PM-Scl100, PM-Scl75, and Ro-52.
The presence of these antibodies can help identify specific types of myositis, such as dermatomyositis, polymyositis, and inclusion body myositis. The test can also help differentiate myositis from other conditions that may cause similar symptoms, such as muscular dystrophy or other autoimmune diseases.
Results of the MYOSITIS PROFILE EXTENDED IgG: 16 ANTIGENS test are typically reported as positive or negative for each antigen. A positive result indicates the presence of antibodies against a specific antigen, which may suggest the presence of a particular type of myositis. However, it is important to note that a negative result does not completely rule out the possibility of myositis, as not all individuals with myositis will have detectable antibodies.
Overall, the MYOSITIS PROFILE EXTENDED IgG: 16 ANTIGENS test is a useful tool in the diagnosis and management of autoimmune myositis, providing valuable information about the specific type of myositis and guiding treatment decisions.
