AN OVERVIEW

About Extractable Nuclear Antigens Test

Why is the Extractable Nuclear Antigens test done?

The extractable nuclear antigens test is a panel test that checks for antigens that account for specific autoimmune diseases. Autoimmune disorders are often genetic, and, unless detected early, can be life-threatening. When a person suffers from an autoimmune disorder, their own immune system becomes their enemy and attacks healthy cells.

The immune system functions as a defender against harmful pathogens. When a bacteria or a virus enters the body, the immune system acts to counter the invasion by releasing killer cells. When a person suffers from an autoimmune disorder, the genetic make-up is such that the immune system targets the body’s normal cells, thinking they are foreign pathogens.

The test is prescribed when the following symptoms are seen:

  • Muscle pain
  • Constant feeling of lethargy
  • Fever
  • Unexplained rashes on the skin
  • Ultraviolet rays sensitivity
  • Urine containing protein
  • Seizures and psychoses
  • Hemolytic anemia
  • Leukopenia
What does the Extractable Nuclear Antigens test measure?

The extractable nuclear antigens test or the ENA test looks for the presence of antigens in the blood. Antigens and antibodies are specific to each other. The extractable nuclear antigens are easily removed from the cell and that helps determine the exact nature of the condition.

Once a person’s ANA test comes back as positive, the ENA test is prescribed to further distinguish the kind of autoantibodies that are present in the blood to start treatment. This test is done to determine the following conditions:

  • Mixed connective tissue disease
  • Lupus or Systemic lupus erythematosus
  • Sjögren syndrome
  • Scleroderma
  • Polymyositis

This test is never ordered for people who do not show signs of having any autoimmune disorders. The following autoantibodies are checked for:

  • Anti-RNP or Anti-Ribonucleoprotein
  • Anti-Sm or Smith Antibody
  • Anti-SS-A (Ro) or Anti-Sjögren Syndrome A
  • Anti-SS-B (La) or Anti-Sjögren Syndrome B
  • Anti-Scl-70 or Scleroderma Antibodies
  • Anti-Jo-1 or Anti-Histidyl Transfer RNA Synthetase Antibodies
Potential risks/side effects associated with the Extractable Nuclear Antigens test

The extractable nuclear antigens test is done by testing the blood of the patient. An experienced phlebotomist collects the blood and ensures the process is painless and as quick as possible.

While the collection of blood itself poses no threats, when a person is suffering from an autoimmune disorder, one of the symptoms will be anemia. This means that the person can feel dizzy and even faint when the blood is collected.

THINGS TO KNOW AFTER GETTING TESTED

Interpreting the Extractable Nuclear Antigens test results

The ENA test is not the only determining factor for determining a prognosis. While the test is prescribed only after the positive result of the ANA test, there can be instances where the results show no antibodies but the patient’s symptoms state otherwise. Hence, both the symptoms and the results are considered to start the treatment.

The result will show which antibodies are present in the blood. Based on the detection, treatment is started.

Autoantibody Disorder
Anti-RNP mixed connective tissue disease or lupus or scleroderma
Anti-Sm lupus
Anti-SS-A (Ro) Sjögren syndrome, may be seen for lupus and scleroderma
Anti-SS-B (La) and is not very common to be alone without Anti-SS-A (Ro) Sjögren syndrome, may be seen for lupus and scleroderma
Anti-Scl-70 scleroderma
Anti-Jo-1 Polymyositis and also for pulmonary fibrosis

Ms Sujata arrived on time and was very polite and caring throughout the process. Actually there was a mistake on my part where I couldn't attend her calls because I was not well and i feel asleep bcoz of my medicines. I had scheduled an appointment for my mother but Ms Sujata somehow reached my address by asking my neighbours. Such a lovely girl, and also the collection process was really smooth. Would absolutely recommend everyone to check out their services
