| antithyroid microsomal antibodies | <immunology> Anti-microsomal antibodies or anti-thyroid microsomal antibodies measure for the presence of antibody to thyroid microsomes. (13 Jan 1998) |

| anti-microsomal antibodies | Anti-microsomal antibodies or anti-thyroid microsomal antibodies measure for the presence of antibody to thyroid microsomes. The anti-microsomal antibody or microsomal antibody test is used to diagnose conditions such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis and other autoimmune disorders. (27 Sep 1997) |

| antithyroid | Relating to an agent that suppresses thyroid function (e.g., propylthiouracil). (05 Mar 2000) |
| antithyroid agent | <pharmacology> Medications which suppress thyroid function. Examples include methimazole and propylthiouracil. (13 Jan 1998) |
| antithyroid agents | Agents that are used to treat hyperthyroidism by reducing the excessive production of thyroid hormones. (12 Dec 1998) |
| microsomal | Of or pertaining to microsomes: vesicular fragments of endoplasmic reticulum formed after disruption and centrifugation of cells. (18 Nov 1997) |
| microsomal antibody | This special serologic test is used to measure thyroid anti-microsomal antibody in the bloodstream. This test can be performed from a simple venipuncture specimen. The anti-microsomal antibody or microsomal antibody test is used to diagnose conditions such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis and other autoimmune disorders. (27 Sep 1997) |
| microsomal fraction | Artifactual vesicles formed from the endoplasmic reticulum when cells are disrupted. They are isolated by differential centrifugation and are composed of three structural features: rough vesicles, smooth vesicles, and ribosomes. Numerous enzyme activities are associated with the microsomal fraction. (glick, glossary of biochemistry and molecular biology, 1990; from rieger et al., glossary of genetics: classical and molecular, 5th ed) (12 Dec 1998) |
| acetylcholine receptor antibodies | <neurology, investigation> A test used to measure the amount of antibodies to acetylcholine receptors on nerve endings. This is a diagnostic test for myasthenia gravis. A normal value is no antibodies in the bloodstream. Acetylcholine receptor (AChR) binding autoantibodies (i.e. Antibodies reactive with several epitopes other than the binding site for acetylcholine or alpha-bungarotoxin) are present in approximately 88% of patients with generalised myasthenia gravis, 70% of ocular myasthenia and in approximately 80% of myasthenia gravis in remission. Although serum concentrations of AChR binding autoantibodies do not in general correlate well with severity of weakness, there is typical decrease in concentration as weakness improves with immunosuppressive therapy. AChR blocking autoantibodies (i.e., antibodies reactive with the AChR binding site) are present in about 50% of patients with myasthenia gravis, 30% with ocular myasthenia gravis and 20% of myasthenia gravis in remission, AChR blocking autoantibodies are the only AChR autoantibodies present in about 1% of myasthenia gravis. AChR modulating autoantibodies (i.e., autoantibodies which cross-link AChRs and cause their removal from muscle membrane surfaces) are present in more than 90% of myasthenia gravis and occasionally are the only AchR autoantibodies detectable in mild, recent onset or ocular-restricted myasthenia gravis. Results for AChR modulating autoantibodies can be transiently false-positive due to curare-like drugs used during general anesthesia. AChR autoantibodies of one or more types are found in at least 80% of ocular myasthenia gravis. Although generally absent in neurological conditions other than myasthenia gravis(and consequently unlikely to cause confusion in neurodiagnosis), false-positive results for AChR autoantibodies occasionally occur in primary biliary cirrhosis, tardive dyskinesia, autoimmune thyroiditis, the elderly, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients treated with cobra venom and patients with thymoma in the absence of myasthenia gravis. Approximately 1% of patients with rheumatoid arthritis treated with D-penicillamine develop AChR autoantibodies and myasthenia gravis, both of which disappear when the drug is discontinued. Babies born to ~10% of myasthenia gravis mothers have a transient neonatal form of myasthenia gravis that responds well to anticholinesterase therapy and usually remits within 1 month as maternal IgG disappears.

| antibodies | Any of numerous protein molecules produced by the B-cells as a primary immune defense. (16 Dec 1997) |
| antibodies, anticardiolipin | Antiphospholipid antibodies found in association with systemic lupus erythematosus (lupus erythematosus, systemic), antiphospholipid syndrome, and in a variety of other diseases as well as in healthy individuals. The antibodies are detected by solid-phase immunoassay employing the purified phospholipid antigen cardiolipin. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibodies, anti-idiotypic | Antibodies which react with the individual structural determinants (idiotopes) on the variable region of other antibodies. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibodies, antineutrophil cytoplasmic | Autoantibodies directed against cytoplasmic constituents of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and/or monocytes. They are used as specific markers for wegener's granulomatosis and other diseases, though their pathophysiological role is not clear. Anca are routinely detected by indirect immunofluorescence with three different patterns: c-anca (cytoplasmic), p-anca (perinuclear), and atypical anca. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibodies, antinuclear | See: Antinuclear antibodies. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibodies, antiphospholipid | Autoantibodies directed against phospholipids. These antibodies are characteristically found in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (lupus erythematosus, systemic), antiphospholipid syndrome, related autoimmune diseases, some non-autoimmune diseases, and also in healthy individuals. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibodies, archaeal | Immunoglobulins induced by substances elaborated by archaea that have an antigenic activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
