Phospholipase A2 Receptor (PLA2R) Antibody, ELISA

Laboratory: Quest Diagnostics
Test code: 39245
Specimen: Serum
Fasting: Not stated
LOINC: 73737-9
Turnaround: Set up: Tues, Thurs, Sat

Laboratory assay overview

Phospholipase A2 Receptor (PLA2R) Antibody (Ab) testing provides physicians with a non-invasive tool for diagnosing primary membranous nephritis (PMN), an autoimmune disease most commonly mediated by autoantibodies to the podocyte antigen, PLA2R. PLA2R Ab is a highly specific biomarker for PMN and is detected in about 70-80% of patients. Moreover, PLA2R Ab levels frequently rise and fall with the clinical course of PMN and PLA2R Ab levels may have clinical utility in monitoring PMN patients for therapeutic response, remission, and disease relapse.

Phospholipase A2 Receptor Autoantibodies, IgG

Laboratory: Labcorp
Test code: 141330
Specimen: Serum
Fasting: Not stated
LOINC: 73737-9
Turnaround: 2 - 8 days

Laboratory assay overview

The anti-PLA2R ELISA (IgG) test kit is intended for the qualitative or semiquantitative determination of IgG class autoantibodies against phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) in human serum.1 It is used as an aid in the diagnosis of primary membranous glomerulonephritis (pMGN), in conjunction with other laboratory and clinical findings.

Verify these ranges and sources

We compile every detail above directly from named laboratory directories and published clinical studies. Laboratories calculate standard reference intervals from the statistical distribution of tested populations for a specific assay method and demographic group, rather than setting universal optimal targets.
