In coeliac disease, anti-actin antibody levels correlate with the level of intestinal damage. [2] [3] In autoimmune hepatitis, anti-actin antibody levels correlate with patterns of immune recognition, [4] the pattern of recognition was specific to a small percentage of autoimmune hepatitis type 1 or cryptogenic hepatitis patients.

The water-accessible surface area of an IgG antibody. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is a type of antibody. Representing approximately 75% of serum antibodies in humans, IgG is the most common type of antibody found in blood circulation. [1] IgG molecules are created and released by plasma B cells. Each IgG antibody has two paratopes.
Since these antibodies sometimes destroy red blood cells they can cause anemia; this test can help clarify the condition. The indirect Coombs test detects antibodies that are floating freely in the blood. [1] These antibodies could act against certain red blood cells; the test can be carried out to diagnose reactions to a blood transfusion. [1]
Antibody profiling is used for identifying persons from forensic samples. The technology can uniquely identify a person by analyzing the antibodies in body fluids. A unique, individual set of antibodies, called individual specific autoantibodies (ISA), is found in blood, serum, saliva, urine, semen, perspiration, tears, and body tissues, and ...
Type 1 autoimmune hepatitis. Positive antibodies include: [19] [20] Antinuclear antibody (ANA) Anti-smooth muscle antibody (ASMA) - 65% of people; Anti-actin antibodies; Anti-mitochondrial antibodies - rare except for overlap syndromes with primary biliary cholangitis; Anti-soluble liver antigen/liver pancreas antibody antigen - 20% of people
Photomicrograph of a histological section of human skin prepared for direct immunofluorescence using an anti-IgG antibody. The skin is from a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus and shows IgG deposit at two different places: The first is a band-like deposit along the epidermal basement membrane ("lupus band test" is positive).
Anti-Pan-Primate Antibody Type Description; Anti-Pan-Primate IgG [8F1] This is a recombinant monoclonal antibody to pan-primate IgG. This antibody reacts with most primate IgG antibodies, including human IgG. In a research setting the antibody has been used via ELISA to count IgG in supernatants from lung and lymph node tissues from cynomolgus ...
The IgG antibody is similar to AGA IgA, but is found at higher levels in patients with the IgA-less phenotype. It is also associated with coeliac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity. [5] [6] [7] Anti-gliadin antibodies are frequently found with anti-transglutaminase antibodies.
