ANA (Anti-Nuclear Antibodies) ELISA measures antibodies directed against components of the cell nucleus. These antibodies are commonly present in autoimmune diseases where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues. The ELISA method provides a quantitative or semi-quantitative assessment of ANA levels and is widely used as a screening test for conditions such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), autoimmune hepatitis, mixed connective tissue disease, and other systemic autoimmune disorders. Results are interpreted along with clinical findings and may be followed by more specific ANA profile tests if positive.
