smooth muscle antibody (anti-SMA).(2) SMAs are generally identified by indirect immunofluorescence using a smooth muscle substrate. The antigen specificity of anti-SMAs in the context of AIH has been identified as filamentous-actin (F-actin).(2) Because the clinical symptoms of AIH are nonspecific, being found in a variety of liver

smooth muscle antibodies and negative anti-mitochondrial antibodies are essential for diagnosis. Like PBC, it is characterized by a female predominance with female: male ratio of 10:1 and it slowly progresses to fibrosis and cirrhosis of the liver if left untreated [1,2]. However, AIC may still be difficult to be distinguished from some cases of sclerosing cholangitis (SC). Noninvasive ...

Autoimmune Antibody Testing
Anti-Smooth Muscle Antibodies These are frequently non-specific or transiently detected. However they may be associated with Type 1 Autoimmune Hepatitis. These patients may also have a positive ANA. Anti-Liver Kidney Microsomal Antibodies These are directed against Cytochrome P450 proteins and are particularly associated with Type 2 and hepatitis C, the former is more common in children. Anti ...

As a result, the diagnosis is still frequently missed today and a new diagnostic method to specifically identify aortic dissection would be attractive. The purpose of this study was to examine the feasibility of radioimmunoscintigraphy using 99mTc-anti– smooth muscle myosin monoclonal antibody (SM-MAb) for the noninvasive diagnosis ...
