The performance of the chemiluminescent immunoassay for measuring serum myeloperoxidase and proteinase 3 antibodies.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has traditionally been used to detect myeloperoxidase (MPO) and proteinase 3 (PR3) antibodies, although it is time-consuming and physically demanding. As a novel and highly effective immunoassay, we compared chemiluminescent immunoassay (CIA) with ELISA to verify the application value of CIA in MPO and PR3 antibodies detection.

Methods

By ELISA and CIA, serum levels of anti-MPO and anti-PR3 antibodies were measured in 63 anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) patients (AAV group), including 47 microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) patients and 16 granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) patients, in addition, 68 patients in interference control group (IC group), 19 healthy subjects in healthy control group (HC group). We compared MPO and PR3 antibodies levels and positive rates measured by these two methods among groups. Relationship and coincidence rate between ELISA and CIA were investigated. Diagnostic values for clinical outcomes for MPO and PR3 antibodies were assessed by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve.

Results

In AAV patients, when detecting anti-MPO (r = .90) and anti-PR3 (r = .81), CIA was highly correlated with ELISA, companying with highly total (88.89%, 92.06%, respectively) and positive coincidence rates (84.78%, 77.27%, respectively). In HC group, anti-PR3 positive rate detected by both immunoassay were 0, anti-MPO almost were 0, which without statistically significant difference (P = .32). In IC group, the total (76.47%, 58.82, respectively) and positive coincidence rates (48.38%, 30.00%, respectively) of anti-MPO and anti-PR3 were the lowest, but the negative coincidence rates reached 100%. By CIA, similar to ELISA, the levels of anti-MPO were significantly higher both in AAV patients (56.00; [4.40-235.30]) and MPA patients (98.00; [27.90-324.70]) compared with either IC group (3.20; [3.20-18.55) (P < .0001) or HC group (3.20; [3.20-3.20]) (P < .0001), yielded an area under curve (AUC) of 0.76 for AAV and 0.89 for MPA, the concentration of anti-PR3 in GPA group (66.65; [24.43-150.00]) was significantly higher than that in IC group (2.3; [2.3-10.95]) (P < .0001) and HC group (2.3; [2.3-2.3]) (P < .0001), with an AUC of 0.92.

Conclusion

Similar to ELISA, CIA was competent to detect MPO and PR3 antibodies in AAV patients and healthy population, thus distinguish AAV patients from IC group and HC group and effectively diagnose MPA and GPA.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:There is accumulating evidence that complement activation is important in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) pathogenesis. This study was undertaken to investigate complement activation in AAV with myeloperoxidase (MPO) positivity and AAV with proteinase 3 (PR3) positivity after determining optimal methods for measuring activated complement factors in circulation. METHODS:Participants included 98 patients with AAV (45 MPO-ANCA positive, 53 PR3-ANCA positive) and 35 healthy controls. Plasma was obtained from blood collected using EDTA tubes, with or without 100 ?g/ml Futhan. Levels of Bb, C3a, C5a, soluble C5b-9 (sC5b-9), properdin, and C4d were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Group comparisons were made using Wilcoxon's 2-sample test. Paired data were analyzed using a matched pairs signed rank test. RESULTS:Compared to healthy controls, certain complement analyte levels were high in patients with active AAV with MPO positivity, including C3a (P < 0.0001), C5a (P = 0.0004), and sC5b-9 (P = 0.0007). During remission, levels of Bb (P = 0.001), C3a (P < 0.0001), and sC5b-9 (P = 0.003) were higher. Compared to healthy controls, C3a (P < 0.0001), C5a (P = 0.002), sC5b-9 (P = 0.0001), and C4d (P = 0.005) levels were higher in patients with active AAV with PR3 positivity; levels of C3a (P < 0.0001) and C4d (P = 0.007) were also higher duriing remission. There were no significant differences in any complement analyte for either ANCA serotype between patients with active disease and those with disease in remission. Among patients with paired samples, sC5-9 levels were significantly lower during disease remission compared to active disease. C5a was significantly lower among patients with disease in long-term remission who were not receiving therapy. For Bb, C5a, and sC5b-9, median levels and individual values were considerably higher in control and patient samples processed without Futhan compared to those processed with Futhan. CONCLUSION:Complement activation occurs in both MPO-positive AAV and PR3-positive AAV. The complement activation profile differs according to disease activity and possibly ANCA serotype. Futhan reduces in vitro complement activation and provides a more accurate measurement.

Project description:Varicella and herpes zoster are mild symptoms-associated diseases caused by varicella-zoster virus (VZV). They often cause severe complications (disseminated zoster), leading to death when diagnoses and treatment are delayed. However, most commercial VZV diagnostic tests have low sensitivity, and the most sensitive tests are unevenly available worldwide. Here, we developed and validated a highly sensitive VZV diagnostic kit based on the chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA) approach. VZV-glycoprotein E (gE) was used to develop a CLIA diagnostic approach for detecting VZV-specific IgA, IgG, and IgM. The kit was tested with 62 blood samples from 29 VZV-patients classified by standard ELISA into true-positive and equivocal groups and 453 blood samples from VZV-negative individuals. The diagnostic accuracy of the CLIA kit was evaluated by receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. The relationships of immunoglobulin-isotype levels between the two groups and with patient age ranges were analyzed. Overall, the developed CLIA-based diagnostic kit demonstrated the detection of VZV-specific immunoglobulin titers depending on sample dilution. From the ELISA-based true-positive patient samples, the diagnostic approach showed sensitivities of 95.2%, 95.2%, and 97.6% and specificities of 98.0%, 100%, and 98.9% for the detection of VZV-gE-specific IgA, IgG, and IgM, respectively. Combining IgM to IgG and IgA detection improved diagnostic accuracy. Comparative analyses on diagnosing patients with equivocal results displaying very low immunoglobulin titers revealed that the CLIA-based diagnostic approach is overall more sensitive than ELISA. In the presence of typical VZV symptoms, CLIA-based detection of high titer of IgM and low titer of IgA/IgG suggested the equivocal patients experienced primary VZV infection. Furthermore, while no difference in IgA/IgG level was found regarding patient age, IgM level was significantly higher in young adults. The CLIA approach-based detection kit for diagnosing VZV-gE-specific IgA, IgG, and IgM is simple, suitable for high-throughput routine analysis situations, and provides enhanced specificity compared to ELISA.
