Antinuclear Antibodies in Multiple Sclerosis
Archives of Neurology, 1982Low levels of antinuclear antibodies (ANAs) were found by indirect immunofluorescence in the serum of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Antibodies were found in 22 (81%) of 27 patients with MS and four (20%) of 20 healthy control subjects, with human epithelial (HEp-2) cells as substrate. Antinuclear antibody titers ranged from 8 to 32 in patients

Antinuclear antibodies in psychiatric patients
Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica, 1994To investigate whether unrecognized systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) might occur more frequently among psychiatric patients than expected on clinical examination, sera of 100 patients from a psychiatric hospital were tested for the presence of antibodies against nuclear antigens (ANA) and antibodies against DNA.

Antinuclear Antibodies and Propylthiouracil Therapy
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1972To the Editor.— Drugs that have been reported to activate systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) can be divided into those that do so by their own pharmacologic properties, and thus cause it in a considerable percentage of individuals who receive them (hydralazine hydrochloride, isoniazid, procainamide hydrochloride, and various anticonvulsants), and ...

Antinuclear Antibodies in Pleural Fluid
Chest, 1994Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) frequently involves the pleura with resultant pleural effusion. Previous studies have reported that detection of antinuclear antibodies (ANA) in pleural fluid using animal tissue as substrate was a sensitive and specific method for distinguishing SLE pleural effusions from other etiologies. The HEp-2 ANA, which uses a

Antinuclear antibodies in infectious diseases
Infectious Diseases, 2019Introduction: Antinuclear antibody (ANA) tests are widely used for the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases, but ANAs are also commonly found in patients with various infections. This retrospective study aimed to investigate the relationship between infections and ANA status.Methods: Patients that visited the Department of Infectious Diseases at Inha ...

Enzyme Immunoassays for Antinuclear Antibodies
Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1997To evaluate the potential advantages and disadvantages of the EANA, the immunopathology laboratory of the Henry Ford Health System compared the qualitative and quantitative results from several EANA assays to those from a well-standardized FANA assay and then correlated them with the clinical data.

Autoantibodies are historical hallmarks in the establishment of the concept of autoimmunity and in the definition of the clinical limits of several autoimmune diseases. On a day-to-day basis, autoantibodies are helpful elements not only in the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases, but also frequently in the establishment of prognosis and in the monitoring ...

Antinuclear Antibodies and Cardiovascular Drugs
Drugs, 1980Antinuclear antibodies (ANA) can be induced by some drugs used in the treatment of cardiovascular disease. The reported frequency with which these antibodies are detected in patients varies widely. This variation results from a number of factors.

Detection of Antinuclear Antibodies in SLE
2014The antinuclear antibodies (ANA) also known as antinuclear factors (ANF) are unwanted molecules which bind and destroy certain structures within the nucleus. In systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), they are produced in excess; hence their detection in the blood of patients is important for diagnosis and monitoring of the disease.
