They also share with MIS-C and severe cases of COVID-19 high levels both of ferritin (released by neutrophils) and of haemophagocytosis. [49] The frequent gastrointestinal presentation and mesenteric lymph node inflammation are in keeping with the known liking of SARS-CoV-2 to replicate in enterocytes. [16]

The presence of AMA in the blood or serum of a person may be indicative of the presence of, or the potential to develop, the autoimmune disease primary biliary cholangitis (PBC; previously known as primary biliary cirrhosis).

Anti-SSA autoantibodies (anti–Sjögren's-syndrome-related antigen A autoantibodies, also called anti-Ro, or similar names including anti-SSA/Ro, anti-Ro/SSA, anti–SS-A/Ro, and anti-Ro/SS-A) are a type of anti-nuclear autoantibodies that are associated with ...
