DNA Ab., d-s

DNA Antibodies, Double-Stranded (dsDNA) is a blood test that detects the presence of antibodies against double-stranded DNA, which is a key marker in the diagnosis of autoimmune disorders, particularly systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). These antibodies are produced by the immune system when it mistakenly attacks its own DNA, indicating an underlying autoimmune response. A positive dsDNA antibody test is strongly associated with lupus and can help in diagnosing the condition, assessing its severity, and monitoring disease activity.
