- ANA 12 Panel
Test Includes
ANA Profile 12 is reflexive and is comprised of Anti-Nuclear Ab (ANA) by IFA, Anti-Cardiolipin Ab (IgG, IgA & IgM Isotypes), Anti-Centromere Ab, Anti-dsDNA Ab by Farr, Anti-La (SS-B) Ab, Anti-Ro (SSA) Ab, Anti-Scl-70 Ab, Anti- Sm, Anti-TPO (Thyroid Microsomal Peroxidase) Ab, Anti-U1 RNP, C3 Complement, C4 Complement.
If ANA is positive, all tests listed are performed. If ANA is negative, an Anti-Ro (SS-A) test is performed to catch the small percentage of ANA false negative results. ANA includes titer & pattern.
Expected Turnaround Time
10 - 12 days
Turnaround time is defined as the usual number of days from the date of pickup of a specimen for testing to when the result is released to the ordering provider. In some cases, additional time should be allowed for additional confirmatory or additional reflex tests. Testing schedules may vary.

Test Details
Use
The ANA test detects autoantibodies that bind to the nuclear components of HEp-2 cells. A positive ANA titer is not specific, but indicates the presence of one or more autoantibodies. Profiles of specific autoantibodies have diagnostic and potential prognostic utility for several autoimmune diseases.
RDL’s ANA 12 Profile Helps Differentiate Between 8 Autoimmune Disease States:
SLE
• ANA by IFA
Tests with high specificity
• Anti-dsDNA by Farr
• Anti-SM
Tests with moderate specificity
• Anti-Ro
• Anti-La
• C3 & C4 Complements
• Anticardiolipin IgG, IgA & IgM
Sjogren’s Syndrome
• Anti-Ro
• Anti-La
Mixed Connective Tissue Disease (MCTD)
• Anti-U1 RNP
Limited Scleroderma (CREST)
• Anti-Centromere
Diffuse Scleroderma
• Anti-SCL-70 by EIA, confirmed by ID
Autoimmune Thyroid Disease
