Test Overview

What is an Anti-Double Stranded DNA Test in Delhi?

The anti-double stranded DNA test in Delhi detects specific antibodies that target your body’s own DNA. These antibodies are a key marker for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), an autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks healthy cells and tissues. This test helps confirm lupus diagnosis and monitor its activity, particularly in cases where patients experience symptoms such as fatigue, joint pain, or kidney inflammation.

Performed through a simple blood draw, it uses the Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA) method to accurately measure antibody levels. High values indicate active lupus or kidney involvement, while lower values may suggest remission or effective treatment.

What Does an Anti-dsDNA Test Measure in Delhi?

The test measures the level of anti-dsDNA antibodies in your blood. These antibodies help your doctor:

  • Confirm a diagnosis of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE).
  • Detect lupus-related kidney involvement (lupus nephritis).
  • Assess disease severity and monitor flare-ups.
  • Differentiate lupus from other autoimmune disorders.
  • Evaluate treatment response over time.

Anti-dsDNA Test: Who Needs It and Why It’s Done

Who Should Get a Anti-Double Stranded DNA Test?

  • Symptoms such as persistent fatigue, joint pain, or a butterfly-shaped rash on your face.
  • A positive ANA test and need confirmation of lupus.
  • Swelling or inflammation that may indicate kidney involvement.
  • An existing lupus diagnosis that requires disease activity monitoring.

It is also advised for patients under lupus treatment to track therapy effectiveness and identify early signs of disease flare-up.

Importance of Anti-Double Stranded DNA Test

The anti-double stranded DNA test is one of the most specific blood tests for lupus. High antibody levels often indicate an active phase of lupus or complications such as lupus nephritis, which can damage the kidneys if untreated.

Monitoring these levels regularly helps doctors adjust treatment plans early, prevent flare-ups, and manage disease progression effectively.
