Antibodies against dsDNA are found during active phases of SLE. The amount of the serum concentration is positively correlated with the severity of the disease. Thus, detection of these autoantibodies is important for the diagnosis and the clinical monitoring of SLE. Consequently it has been established as 1 of the 11 ACR-criteria for the diagnosis of SLE. Most patients with SLE display IgG class antibodies against dsDNA. These autoantibodies are associated with lupus nephritis.Approximately 30% of the SLE patients develop IgA class anti-dsDNA antibodies, additionally. There have been suggestions that the presence of these IgA class anti-dsDNA antibodies may define a certain subset of SLE patients. Indeed studies demonstrated the association of this subclass with certain parameters of the disease activity.
Rat Anti-double stranded DNA (dsDNA) ELISA Kit employs the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to dsDNA. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated dsDNA and incubated. The competitive inhibition reaction is launched between with HRP labeled dsDNA and unlabeled dsDNA with the antibody. A substrate solution is added to the wells and the color develops in opposite to the amount of dsDNA in the sample. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
