Extractable Nuclear Antigen profile allows detection of five parallel but separate auto-antibodies in human serum or plasma. The different antigenic components of ENA profile include Ro/SS-A, La/SS-B, Sm, SM-RnP and Scl-70 which are specific for Sjogren’s syndrome-A antibodies, Sjogren’s syndrome-B antibodies, Anti-Smith antibodies, Anti-Ribonucleoprotein antibodies and Anti-Scleroderma 70 (Topoisomerase I) antibodies, respectively. These tests are intended as an aid to the diagnosis of different autoimmune rheumatic disorders where certain diseases show a higher tendency for the presence of one or more of these antibodies in the patients’ sera or secretions .
