What are 3 reasons someone may have elevated ANA without an AI-CTD?
the elderly
relatives of those with SLE, and patients with other autoimmune disorders (e.g. autoimmune thyroid disease),
Which ANA pattern are associated out with SLE
Homogenous
Speckled
Peripheral/rim-dsDNA
Differences between ANA screen and Hep-2?
ANA screen is an ELISA–>cheaper/easier, higher rate false positives
Hep-2 is indirect IF on Hep-2 cells–> More sensitive but more expensive
Why is Hep-2 more sensitive?
Larger array and higher concentration of nuclear antigens -e.g.
- SSA
- centromere antigens
ANA screen = 8 to 10 autoantigens
Hep2= with >100 autoantigens in HEp-2 cells.

Methods of ANA screen vs. Hep-2?
ANA screen is ELISA: plate with 8-10 antigens
Hep-2 is indirect immunofluorescence on human cell line
True or false: Following ANA titres is good for disease monitoring?
False, can take 7 mo to change and doesn’t typically correlate

What ab is high risk for scleroderma renal crisis ?

Specific!
Why are SSA and SSB often both positive
linked set of auto antigens present in same set RNP particles, thus develops against one and spread to the other.
*cavaeta that SSA can occur alone, but SSB rarely occurs alone

C-ANCA primarily targets what?
PR3-antigens in cytoplasm of neutrophils
What is an ANCA
Anti-neutrophilic cytoplasmic antibodies
Antibodies directed against cytoplasmic granules of neutrophils

Staining for these shows either cytoplasmic pattern =C-ANCA or perinculear pattern
What antigen does P-anca predominately target
MPO-myeloperoxidase
Which is more specific: C-ANCA for PR3 for P-ANCA for MPO
C-ANCA for PR3 (sometimes is due to MPO or BPI but rarely)
P-ANCA can detect MPO, lactoferrin, elastase, BPI, cathepsin G
What Ab’s found in GPA and how often?
PR3 in 90%
MPO+ up to 50% in asians (10% in non asians)
What ab’s found in EGPA and how often?
P-ANCA
MPO+ in 30-40%
*Least associated of all 3
What ab’s found in MPA
MPO+ 90%
P-ANCA
*PR3 in 20-30%
What conditions (other than AAV) can you see ANCA +?
Most often it is P-ANCA than C-ANCA
*Some of these are PR3 and MPO related, some are not
