Abstract:
Objective To compare the specificity and sensitivity of antibodies against SSA and SSB,anti-M3 receptor polypeptide antibodies,anti-α-fodrin(IgG)antibodies in primary SjSgren's syndrome (pSS).Methods One hundred and ten pSS patients(mean age was 49.2±14.8.mean disease duration was 5.6±4.6),80 systemic lupus erythmatosis(SLE)patients(mean age was 25.5 4-4.6,mean disease duration was 2.5±1.2)and 80 rheumatoid arthritis(RA)patients(mean age was 44.6±3.5.mean disease duration was 4.2±1.1)were studied.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure these antibodies.Results The seropositive rates of anti-SSA,anti-SSB antibodies,anti-M3 receptor polypeptide antibodies and anti-α-fodrin(IgG)antibodies were 45.5%,30.9%,78.2%and 77.3%,respectivelv in pSS.They were much higher than those in RA and SLE patients(P<0.05).Specificities of SSA、SSB antibodies,anti-M3 receptor antibodies and anti-α-fodrin IgG were 83.8%,97.7%.92.0%and 90.O% respectively.With the combination of these antibodies in the diagnosis of pSS.the Sellsitivity can be increased at least to 88.2%and the specificity was not decreased significantly.Conclusion Combination of these antibodies can significantly improve the sensitivity of these antibodies in the diagnosis of pSS.Anti-SSA and SSB antibodies,anti-M3 receptor antibodies and anti-α-fodrin(IgG)antibodies are specific antibodies for the diagnosis of pSS.
