Smith Antibody (Anti-Sm) (IO0106)

Description

Smith Antibody (Anti-Sm) is a blood test used to detect antibodies directed against Smith (Sm) nuclear antigens. It is highly specific for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and is commonly included in autoimmune and ANA profile panels. Although less sensitive, Anti-Sm positivity strongly supports the diagnosis of lupus when interpreted alongside clinical findings and other serological markers.
