EUVAS study confirms efficiency of automated multiparametric immunofluorescene for detection of vasculitis-associated ANCA

Scientist of the European Vasculitis Study (EUVAS) group published the results of a recent study (Csernok et al., Autoimmunity Reviews 2016) testing the performance of two fully automated platforms for multiparametric ANCA IIFT diagnostics which combine cell substrates and monospecific antigen substrates: the EUROPLUS Granulocyte Mosaic (EUROPattern, Euroimmun AG) and CytoBead ANCA (Aklides, Medipan/Generic Assays

23 at one swoop

Using the EUROLINE ANA Profil 23 a patient sample can be tested for autoantibodies against 23 different nuclear antigens in one incubation. They are considered as the most important antigens which underlie the nuclear ANA patterns defined by an international consensus. For more than 50 years the abbreviation “ANA” has been used to describe anti-nuclear antibodies which

Autoantibody diagnostics in autoimmune nephropathies

Autoimmune-mediated damage to the kidneys can be triggered by autoantibodies directed against renal proteins, as in the case of primary membranous nephropathy (MN) or Goodpasture syndrome, or may occur secondary as part of the wide-reaching effects of systemic autoimmune diseases such as vasculitis or systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The detection of specific autoantibodies in patient
