Antinuclear Ab Profile, 9-biomarker Profile, by Multiplex Immunoassay, dsDNA, RNP, Sm, SS-A, SS-B, Scl-70, Chromatin, Jo-1, Centromere B

This test measures nine specific antibodies, which are proteins the immune system creates that may mistakenly attack the body's own tissues. It helps show whether symptoms like joint pain, fatigue, or skin rashes are caused by an autoimmune disorder. By identifying which specific antibody is present, this profile helps doctors distinguish between conditions such as Lupus, Sjogren’s syndrome, and scleroderma. However, a positive result does not confirm a specific diagnosis on its own, as clinical evaluation and other tests are needed to interpret the findings.
