ANTINUCLEAR ANTIBODIES IN RABBIT ANTISERA [PDF]
Antinuclear antibodies were detected by immunofluorescence in most sera from rabbits immunized with whole human serum emulsified in Freund's complete adjuvant. Four of 14 sera from rabbits immunized with Cohn fractions III, IV-1, or IV-4 also gave positive nuclear fluorescence with human leukocyte nuclei.

Understanding antinuclear antibodies [PDF]
The American College of Rheumatology (formerly the American Rheumatism Association) diagnostic criteria for connective tissue disorders frequently include positive antinuclear antibody (ANA) assays. Proper interpretation of these tests requires an understanding of the principles governing ANA assays.

Antinuclear Antibodies in Children [PDF]
In this issue of The Journal , Sperotto, et al report on a longitudinal study of antinuclear antibodies (ANA) and chronic noninflammatory musculoskeletal pain (CNI-MSP) in schoolchildren1. Of 261 subjects, 32 children (12.3%) were included based on a positive ANA and 77 (29.5%) based on the presence of CNI-MSP.

Rare Antinuclear Antibody Patterns: Relevance in Routine Laboratory Reporting [PDF]
Introduction: Uncommon patterns on Human Epithelial 2 (Hep 2) substrate during Antinuclear Antibody (ANA) screening by Indirect Immunofluorescence (IIF) microscopy are not routinely reported by many laboratories since their clinical relevance is not well

Antinuclear antibodies in rosacea patients [PDF]
IntroductionRosacea is a common inflammatory disorder, characterized by a spectrum of facial manifestations. The clinical similarity to other dermatoses, like lupus erythematosus, might lead to misdiagnosis, particularly in patients with elevated antinuclear antibody titers.AimTo assess the frequency, titer and specificity of antinuclear antibodies in ...
