Principle of Fluorescence1. Energy is absorbed by the atom which becomes excited.2. The electron jumps to a higher energy level.3. Soon, the electron drops back to the ground state, emitting a photon (or a packet of light) - the atom is fluorescing.

• In 2008, the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) initiated a task force to investigate and collect information from physicians to evaluate the extent of the problem.

• In August 2009, the ACR issued a statement declaring HEp-2 IFA as the preferred method for ANA screening.

Page 46: journal Presentation 1

The term "anti-nuclear antibodies" describes a variety of autoantibodies that react with constituents of cell nuclei including DNA, RNA and several proteins and ribonucleoproteins.1

These autoantibodies occur with high frequency in patients with connective tissue or rheumatic diseases, especially systemic lupus erythematosus (Tan EM: Autoantibodies to nuclear antigens (ANA): Their immunobiology and medicine. Advances in Immunology 33: 167-239, 1982 )

• Autoantibodi adalah ciri dari autoimunitas, yang antibodi anti-inti (ANA) telah mengambil tengah panggung selama 60 tahun terakhir. Istilah ANA sudah ketinggalan jaman dan bahkan membingungkan sebagai label sejarah ini telah datang untuk mencakup antibodi diarahkan pada berbagai kompartemen selular termasuk konstituen inti, komponen selubung nukleus, aparatus gelendong mitosis, sitosol, organel sitoplasma dan membran sel.

• Deteksi antibodi anti-seluler dari keluarga ANA adalah penting untuk diagnosis banyak autoimun diseases.1 2

• Selain itu, antibodi spesifik dari keluarga ANA dapat hadir tahun sebelum munculnya penyakit yang jelas, dan untuk beberapa kondisi pengujian serologi dapat memberikan informasi yang berguna pada kemungkinan klinis atau komplikasi (misalnya, miopati inflamasi, lupus eritematosus sistemik (SLE)). Oleh karena itu,

• penentuan ANA dapat memungkinkan prediksi, diagnosis dan aktivitas penentuan penyakit autoimun tertentu *

• Antobodi anti-nuclear adalah antobodi yang tak biasa, dapat dideteksi di darah, memiliki kemampuan untuk mengikat struktur tertentu pada nukleus sel. Nukleus menganduk DNA, materi genetika. ANA ditemukan pada pasien dengan sistem imun yang telah terkan faktor predisposisi dan akhirnya terkena radang serta merusakan jaringan tubuh sendiri.

• Dengan ditemukannya titer ANA yang tinggi (1:160 misalnya), berbagai subtipe ANA dapat dibedakan.[1] Berikut adalah subtipe pada sel HEp-2, misalnya:

• Anti-ENA (Extractable nuclear antigen)• Anti-gp-210 (gp-210 pori nuklear)• Anti-p62 (Nucleoporin 62)• Anti-dsDNA (DNA rantai ganda)• Anti-Ro (SS-A)• Anti-La (SS-B)• Anti-Sm (Antigen Smith)• Anti-nRNP (ribonukleoprotein nukleus)• Anti Scl-70 (topoisomerase I)• Anti-centromere• Anti-Jo

• The increased sensitivity of the HEp-2 ANA test compared with the ANA test performed on rodent tissue is associated with a lower specificity.

• Thus, more patients with diseases other than SLE as well as normal healthy persons have positive ANA test results.

• Some laboratories have attempted to adjust for this by using a higher titer of ANA as a cutoff for a positive result. For example, on rodent tissues, ANA titers of 1:20 or 1:40 or higher have been called positive, whereas on the HEp-2 substrate, titers of 1:80 or higher are usually called positive

• Autoabs directed specifically against intra-nuclear antigens

• Most commonly (not always) detected by immunofluorecence on intact cells

• If an ANA is detected, the specific antigen may or may not be known (most ANA’s aren’t known – only detected by fluorescence inside of an intact nucleus)

• When an ANA screen is positive, one then uses more specific tests against known antigens to determine if that ANA is relevant to medical disease (Subserology)

• The NOVA View measures light intensity in light intensity units (LIU). Calibration of the FITC light intensity standardizes the analytical sensitivity of the instrument relative to a master instrument, thereby minimizing instrument to instrument variation. This procedure measures the FITC output of the system in LIU, calculates a factor relative to the target value generated by the master instrument at manufacturing, and incorporates the factor into the software settings. The FITC light intensity should be calibrated at installation, during preventative maintenances, and at any major service or breakdown.

NOVA Lite® HEp-2 ANA Kit with DAPI

• Indirect immunofluorescence is the reference method for ANA testing. Common substrates are thin sections of rodent organs or various types of cell lines. It is generally agreed that cell line substrates are preferable to organ sections since these rapidly dividing cells have higher levels of certain clinically relevant antigens, including centromere, SS-A(Ro), Scl-70 and PCNA/Cyclin.

04/19/2023 61

Page 62: journal Presentation 1

• Besides the type of substrate, three other factors are critical to the performance of an ANA test:

1) the fixative used in preparing the slide, 2) the fluorescein to protein (F/P) ratio and 3) the immunoglobulin subclass specificity of the conjugate.

Ig G sbg konjugat

• Virtually all clinically significant autoantibodies exhibit IgG subclass specificity even in the presence of IgM and IgA specific ANA.4 In contrast, ANA found in healthy blood donors are generally of the IgM and IgA subclass only.5 Because of this, conjugates specific for IgG are more disease specific.

• In addition, the IgG conjugate specificity eliminates physiologic false positive results due to normally occurring low titer IgM autoantibodies, often found in older but otherwise healthy persons

• The substrate is incubated with specific fluorescein labeled conjugate and then unbound reagent is washed off.

• When viewed through a fluorescence microscope, autoantibody positive samples will exhibit an apple green fluorescence corresponding to areas of the cell or nuclei where autoantibody has bound.2

Spesimen

• This procedure should be performed with a serum specimen. Addition of azide or other preservatives to the test samples may adversely affect the results. Microbially contaminated, heat-treated, or specimens containing visible particulates should not be used. Grossly hemolyzed or lipemic serum specimens should be avoided.

• Following collection, the serum should be separated from the clot. CLSI (NCCLS)

Document H18-A3 recommends the following storage conditions for samples: 1) Store samples at room temperature no longer than 8 hours. 2) If the assay will not be completed within 8 hours, refrigerate the sample at 2-8°C. 3) If the assay will not be completed within 48 hours, or for shipment of the sample, freeze at -20°C or lower. Frozen specimens must be mixed well after thawing and prior to testing.

metode• Interpretasi hasil:• Negative Reaction. A sample is considered negative if specific staining is equal

to or less than the IFA System Negative Control. Samples can exhibit various degrees of background staining due to heterophile antibodies or low-level autoantibodies to cytoplasmic constituents such as contractile proteins.

• Positive Reaction. A sample is considered positive if specific staining is observed to be greater than the IFA System Negative Control.

Determine the fluorescence grade or intensity using these criteria: 4+ Brilliant apple green fluorescence 3+ Bright apple green fluorescence 2+ Clearly distinguishable positive fluorescence 1+ Lowest specific fluorescence that enables the nuclear and/or cytoplasmic

staining to be clearly differentiated from the background fluorescence.

04/19/2023 69

Page 70: journal Presentation 1

Pattern Interpretation. • A variety of patterns of nuclear and/or cytoplasmic staining can be exhibited depending on the types and relative amounts of autoantibodies present in the sample.

04/19/2023 70

• Homogeneous: A solid staining of the nucleus with or without apparent masking of the nucleoli.– Nuclear antigens present: dsDNA, ssDNA, histones– Disease association: High titers are suggestive of SLE; lower titers are suggestive of SLE or other

connective tissue diseases. • Peripheral: A solid staining, primarily around the outer region of the nucleus, with

weaker staining toward the center of the nucleus.– Nuclear antigens present: dsDNA, ssDNA, DNP, Histone – Disease association: High titers are suggestive of SLE; lower titers are suggestive of SLE or other

connective tissue diseases. • Speckled: A fine or grainy appearing staining of the nucleus, generally without

fluorescent staining of the nucleoli. – Nuclear antigens present: Sm, RNP, Scl-70, SS-A, SS-B, and other antigen/ antibody systems not

yet characterized. – Disease association: High titers suggestive of SLE (Sm antibody), mixed connective tissue disease

(RNP antibody), scleroderma (Scl-70 antibody), or Sjogren's syndrome-sicca complex (SS-B antibody); lower titers may be suggestive of other connective tissue diseases.

Page 71: journal Presentation 1

• Nucleolar: Large coarse speckled staining within the nucleus, generally less than 6 in number per cell, with or without occasional fine speckles. – Nuclear antigens present: 4-6S RNA and other unknown nuclear antigens. – Disease association: High titers are prevalent in scleroderma and Sjogren's

syndrome.

• Centromere: A discrete, speckled staining pattern. The nuclear speckles are very discrete and usually in some multiple of 46. – Nuclear antigens present: Chromosomal centromere (kinetochore). – Disease association: Highly suggestive of the CREST syndrome, a variant of

progressive systemic sclerosis (PSS). CREST is a form of PSS with prominent calcinosis, as well as Raynaud's phenomenon, esophageal dysmotility and limited involvement of the skin (often confined to the fingers or face), telanglectasia.

• Mitochondrial: A discrete speckling of the cytoplasm with relative sparing of the nuclear area. – Antigen present: Various types of mitochondrial antigens. – Disease association: High titers indicate primary biliary cirrhosis.

Keterbatasan 1. High-titered ANA is suggestive of connective tissue disease but should not be considered diagnostic. The ANA result

should be considered in combination with other serological results as well as the overall clinical history of the

patient.

2. ANA patterns often change as the sample is titered out to endpoint. This phenomenon is due to lower titer

antibodies dropping below the sensitivity of the system as more dilute sample is tested.

3. A variety of external factors influence the test sensitivity including the type of fluorescence microscope used, the

bulb strength and age, the magnification used, the filter system and the observer.

4. If a band pass filter is used instead of a 515 barrier filter, increased artifactual staining may be observed.

5. Only pencil should be used to label the slides. Use of any other writing material may cause artifactual staining.

6. All coplin jars used for slide washing should be free from all dye residues. Use of coplin jars containing dye residue

may cause artifactual staining.

7. Results of this assay should be used in conjunction with clinical findings and other serological tests.

8. The assay performance characteristics have not been established for matrices other than serum. 04/19/2023 73

• In three patients, women of 17, 25 and 15 years, suffering from arthralgia and in whom the existence of antinuclear antibodies (ANA) was established, the diagnosis 'systemic lupus erythematosus' was made or considered. Upon reevaluation, the ANA results could not be confirmed. The conclusion was drawn that in patients, who lack one or more clinical signs of a connective tissue disease (CTD), no indication is present for determination of ANA. Literature data indicate that the positive predictive value of ANA for the presence of CTD is 5-10%. Conversely, a negative ANA result does not rule out that CTD is present (negative predictive value: 98.5-99.3%). In addition, the question is raised if a hospital laboratory, lacking experience or routine in ANA assays could reliably perform these assays.

Automatic ANAtes interpretation

• Abstract. HEp-2 cells are used for the identification of antinuclear autoantibodies (ANA). They allow for recognition of over 30 different nuclear and cytoplasmic patterns, which are given by upwards of 100 different autoantibodies. The identification of the patterns has recently been done manually by a human inspecting the slides with a microscope.

• In this paper we present results on the analysis and classification of cells using image analysis and data mining techniques. Starting from a knowledge acquisition process with a human operator, we developed an image analysis and feature extraction algorithm.

• The collection of the data set was done based on an expert’s image reading and based on the automatic extracted features. A data set containing 132 features for each entry was set up and given to a data mining algorithm to find out the relevant features among this large feature set and to construct the classification knowledge. The classifier was evaluated by cross validation. The results gave the expert new insights into the necessary features and the classification knowledge and show the feasibility of an automated inspection system.

Automati c + -

• This study, which is the first to compare the diagnostic accuracy of six systems for automated ANA-IIF reading on the same series of sera, showed that all systems are able to perform very well the task for which they were created. Indeed, cumulative automatic discrimination between positive and negative samples had 95% accuracy. All the manufacturers are actively continuing the development of new and more sophisticated software for a better definition in automatic recognition of patterns and light signal conversion in end-point titer. In the future, this may avert the need for serum dilution for titration, which will be a great advantage in economic terms and time-saving.

Cont’

• Automated assessment of AAB by IIF on HEp-2 cells using an automated interpretation system is a reliable and robust method for positive/negative differentiation. Employing novel mathematical algorithms, automated interpretation provides reproducible detection of specific immunofluorescence patterns on HEp-2 cells.

• Automated interpretation can reduce drawbacks of IIF for AAB detection in routine diagnostics providing more reliable data for clinicians.
