Ana Profile (ANA BY IFA+Line Immuno Assay) in Udaipur

What is an ANA Profile (ANA by IFA + Line Immuno Assay)?

An ANA Profile (ANA by IFA + Line Immuno Assay) is a blood test used to detect antinuclear antibodies (ANA) and identify specific antibodies that may be associated with autoimmune diseases. These antibodies are produced when the immune system mistakenly reacts against the body's own cells and tissues.

This test is a combination of IFA based ANA Testing and LIA based testing for giving additional details on auto-antibodies profile. The ANA Profile test in Udaipur may be recommended by the doctor if there are indications of diseases like lupus, Sjögren’s syndrome, scleroderma, or any other autoimmune disorder.

It is not necessary that having a positive ANA indicates an autoimmune disease. The report must be correlated with other findings.
 

ANA Profile Test Parameters

The ANA Profile generally includes:

• ANA by IFA – Detects antinuclear antibodies and reports the ANA pattern and titre.
  Line Immuno Assay – Detects specific autoantibodies associated with different autoimmune conditions.

Depending on the laboratory panel, the Line Immuno Assay may include antibodies such as anti-dsDNA, Sm, RNP, SSA/Ro, SSB/La, Scl-70, Jo-1 and other disease-associated antibodies.
