ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The abnormal increase in serum IgG4 level is an important clinical symptom of IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD), and the detection of serum IgG4 level is a powerful tool for the diagnosis of IgG4-RD. This study was conducted to establish a simple and rapid immunoassay for the determination of human serum IgG4 levels.METHODS:
Based on the competition method, a novel immunoassay was established for the determination of human serum IgG4 using a combination of time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay (TRFIA) and magnetic microspheres. IgG4 was coupled with magnetic microspheres and competed with IgG4 in the samples to bind the Eu3+ -labeled anti-IgG4 antibody. The immunocomplex was separated and washed in a magnetic field, and the fluorescence counts were measured according to the number of dissociated europium ions.RESULTS:
The analytical sensitivity of IgG4-TRFIA based on magnetic microspheres was 0.006 g/L, and the detection range was 0.006-20 g/L under optimal conditions. The precision, recovery, and specificity of this immunoassay were demonstrated to be acceptable. The clinical application of IgG4-TRFIA based on magnetic microspheres was evaluated and compared with that of immunonephelometry. The results showed that the two detection methods had a good correlation, with a correlation coefficient of .9871.CONCLUSION:
IgG4-TRFIA based on magnetic microspheres has the advantages of high sensitivity, wide detection range, and short analysis time and has the potential to become a useful tool for the diagnosis of IgG4-RD.Palabras clave
