Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the value of serologic teats in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis by conducting a seroprevalence survey for anti-gp210 and anti-sp100 antibodies.Methods A total of 72 consecutive primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) patients with or without Sj(o)gren's syndrome (SS) and 50 patho logic controls were studied.Antibodies were tested by ELISA assays with recombinant spl00 and purified gp210.Results The positive rates of anti-gp210 detected by ELISA was 31.1% and 45.5% in PBC patients with and without SS respectively.Among SS and virus hepatitis patients,none had anti-gp210 antibody (P＜0.01).The prevalence of anti-gp210 was similar in PBC patients with and without SS.The positive rates of an ti-sp100 detected by ELISA was 14.8% and 18.2% in PBC patients with and without SS respectively.Among the patients with SS,only 3.3% was positive for anti-sp100,but none had anti-sp100 reactivity in virus hep atitis patients.The prevalence of anti-sp100 was not significantly different between PBC and SS groups. Conclusion Anti-gp210 and anti-sp100 are highly specific for PBC.The sensitivity of anti-gp210 and anti sp100 is 31.1% and 14.8% respectively.They may be helpful in the diagnosis of PBC.
