MYOSITIS PROFILE IgG11 ANTIGENS Test
Test Cost: AED 1640.0
Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Test Details
The Myositis Profile IgG:11 Antigens test is a diagnostic test used to detect antibodies associated with myositis, which is a group of inflammatory muscle diseases. The test measures the levels of specific antibodies in the blood that are associated with different types of myositis, including dermatomyositis, polymyositis, and inclusion body myositis.
The test typically includes the measurement of antibodies against the following antigens:
- Jo-1: This antibody is commonly found in patients with polymyositis and dermatomyositis.
- Mi-2: This antibody is highly specific for dermatomyositis.
- SRP (signal recognition particle): This antibody is associated with a severe form of myositis called necrotizing myopathy.
- PL-7: This antibody is associated with interstitial lung disease in patients with myositis.
- PL-12: This antibody is also associated with interstitial lung disease in patients with myositis.
- EJ: This antibody is associated with polymyositis and dermatomyositis.
- OJ: This antibody is associated with polymyositis and dermatomyositis.
- KS: This antibody is associated with polymyositis and dermatomyositis.
- PM/Scl: This antibody is associated with polymyositis and scleroderma overlap syndrome.
- U1-RNP: This antibody is associated with mixed connective tissue disease, which can include features of myositis.
- SAE: This antibody is associated with dermatomyositis and overlap syndromes.
By measuring the levels of these antibodies, the Myositis Profile IgG:11 Antigens test can help in the diagnosis and classification of different types of myositis. It can also provide information about the severity and prognosis of the disease.
