Test Code GP210 GP210 Antibody, IgG, Serum


Additional Testing Requirements


This is a first line test when primary biliary cholangitis is strongly suspected. This test should be ordered in conjunction with testing for mitochondrial antibodies (M2) (AMA / Mitochondrial Antibodies [M2], Serum), SP100 antibodies (SP100 / SP100 Antibody, IgG, Serum), and antinuclear antibodies (NAIFA / Antinuclear Antibodies, HEp-2 Substrate, IgG, Serum).



Specimen Required

Collection Container/Tube:

Preferred: Serum gel

Acceptable: Red top

Submission Container/Tube: Plastic vial

Specimen Volume: 0.5 mL Serum

Collection Instructions: Centrifuge and aliquot serum into a plastic vial.


Useful For

Evaluating the risk of primary biliary cholangitis in anti-mitochondrial antibody (AMA)-negative patients by identification of gp210 antibodies

 

Estimating risk in AMA-positive patients with incomplete feature of disease
