Understanding Anti Cardiolipin IgG Antibody in Thane

What is Anti Cardiolipin IgG Antibody in Thane?

The Anti Cardiolipin IgG Antibody is a blood test that detects the presence of immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies targeting cardiolipins, a type of phospholipid in cell membranes. These antibodies are often associated with autoimmune disorders, particularly Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS), which increases the risk of blood clots, recurrent miscarriages, and other complications. This test is widely available at an affordable price with Tata 1mg labs in Thane.

It is recommended for individuals with a history of unexplained blood clots, recurrent miscarriages, or those with symptoms suggestive of antiphospholipid syndrome. Additionally, the test may be recommended for individuals with systemic autoimmune disorders, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), as APS frequently coexists with these conditions. The Anti Cardiolipin IgG Antibody test is also beneficial in monitoring the effectiveness of treatment and managing autoimmune diseases, such as APS, SLE, and other autoimmune conditions where anticardiolipin antibodies can be present.

No special preparation is required for this test. Eat and drink as per your daily routine.

What does Anti Cardiolipin IgG Antibody measure?

The Anti Cardiolipin IgG Antibody test detects specific immunoglobulins IgG antibodies, against cardiolipin, a phospholipid found in cell membranes. These antibodies can indicate autoimmune disorders such as antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

IgG antibodies are typically produced by the immune system later in an immune response and remain in the body for a longer time period, suggesting a more chronic or ongoing immune system activation. Therefore, the anticardiolipin IgG test is often used to diagnose chronic conditions or long-term immune responses, such as persistent blood clot formation in disorders like antiphospholipid syndrome (APS).
