What is Anti ss DNA Antibody (Single Stranded DNA Antibody)?
This test identifies antibodies that target single-stranded DNA in your blood. These antibodies are often associated with certain autoimmune conditions where the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissues.
Why is this test important?
The presence of anti-ssDNA antibodies can be a marker for autoimmune diseases, particularly Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and drug-induced lupus. It helps in diagnosing and monitoring these conditions, especially when other lupus markers are negative.
