About this Test:
The Autoimmune Hepatitis Profile helps in diagnosing chronic liver diseases caused by the immune system attacking liver cells. It is especially useful in differentiating between viral hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease, and autoimmune causes.
Test Parameters Explained:
• LKM-1 (Liver Kidney Microsome Antibody): Marker for Autoimmune Hepatitis Type-2, often seen in children and young adults.
• AMA (Anti-Mitochondrial Antibody): Indicates Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC), a condition affecting bile ducts in the liver.
• ANA (Antinuclear Antibody): Commonly positive in Autoimmune Hepatitis Type-1, helps detect immune activity against body’s own cells.
✔ Useful in unexplained jaundice, fatigue, recurrent liver inflammation.
✔ Guides doctors on need for steroid or immunosuppressive therapy.
✔ Helps differentiate autoimmune hepatitis from viral or alcohol-related liver injury.
