Serine Proteinase 3 Antibodies Test
C-ANCA (Cytoplasmic Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibodies) Test
The ANCA-PR3/C-ANCA Test is a diagnostic blood test used to detect the presence of antibodies against serine proteinase 3 (PR3) in the bloodstream. These antibodies, known as C-ANCA, are associated with autoimmune vasculitis, particularly diseases such as granulomatosis with polyangiitis.
The test measures the concentration of antibodies against serine proteinase 3 (PR3) in the blood, indicating the potential for autoimmune vasculitis.
The test identifies the presence of cytoplasmic anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (C-ANCA), further aiding in the diagnosis of autoimmune vasculitic conditions.
