]]> Serological Biomarkers in Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC): Focus on anti-GP2 IgA https://www.medipan.de/serological-biomarkers-in-psc-focus-on-anti-gp2-iga/ Fri, 20 Mar 2026 07:34:26 +0000 https://www.medipan.de/?p=107421 Anfrage erfolgreich Gemini hat gesagt This image features a medical doctor, explaining human anatomy using a detailed anatomical model of the liver and gallbladder. Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic, progressive inflammatory disease affecting the bile ducts and often leading to fibrosis, cirrhosis, and eventually liver failure. PSC also carries an increased risk of hepatobiliary malignancies, particularly cholangiocarcinoma. Despite significant research efforts, PSC remains difficult to diagnose and manage because its pathogenesis is not fully understood and reliable […]

Understanding Normal Analytical Variation In diagnostic testing, it is not uncommon to observe small differences when the same sample is measured repeatedly. Such variations are expected and reflect the inherent characteristics of the assay, even under well-controlled laboratory conditions. Diagnostic assays rely on complex biological, chemical, and technical processes. Each step introduces a degree of […]

In the foreground sits the "akiron® NEO" analyzer with an integrated screen displaying an immunofluorescence image (bright green dots on a black background). Pipettes, a barcode scanner, and a microscope are also visible on the lab bench. Antinuclear antibody (ANA) testing by indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) on HEp-2 cells remains the gold standard screening method for systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases (SARD), including systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis and Sjögren’s syndrome. However, manual interpretation of ANA HEp-2 IFA patterns is time-consuming, operator-dependent and subject to inter-observer variability. A recent large-scale study published in […]

The person, wearing a white lab coat and blue disposable gloves, is holding a 96-well microplate containing a blue liquid. With their other hand, they are using a micropipette to carefully dispense a sample into one of the wells, suggesting a scientific experiment or analysis is in progress. Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), also known as complement-mediated thrombotic microangiopathy (CM-TMA), is a rare but life-threatening condition caused by dysregulation of the alternative complement pathway. Among the known etiologies, autoantibodies against complement factor H (anti-factor H) play a critical role, accounting for approximately 10% of cases. Accurate laboratory detection of these antibodies is essential, […]

The image highlights the characteristic curved, comma-shaped morphology and the single polar flagellum of the bacteria. In regions affected by recurrent cholera outbreaks, overlapping infectious diseases can obscure the diagnosis of post-infectious autoimmune conditions. We recently collaborated in the publication describing a pediatric case from Yemen that illustrates how Guillain–Barré Syndrome (GBS) can emerge during a cholera outbreak, highlighting the critical role of Campylobacter jejuni infection and anti-ganglioside antibody testing 1.
