RESUMEN
RESUMEN Introducción: Los coronavirus generan enfermedades respiratorias, hepáticas o neurológicas, con gravedad variable en su huésped. La reacción en cadena de la polimerasa con transcriptasa inversa en tiempo real es la metodología de referencia para confirmar la detección del virus SARS-CoV-2. Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica en el periodo de julio a noviembre de 2021, en los recursos disponibles en MEDLINE, SciELO, Pubmed y Elsevier. Del total de consultas se citaron 35 referencias. Objetivo: Describir las pruebas moleculares para la detección de SARS-CoV-2. Desarrollo: Se han diseñado tres tipos de ensayos de rRT-PCR, para la detección de SARS-CoV-2. Las pruebas descritas son específicas para genes ARN (polymerase dependent RNA - RdRp), genes E (upE) y genes Nnes (N). Los Centros para la Prevención y Control de Enfermedades (CDC) de los EE.UU., han desarrollado la rRT-PCR dirigidos a la proteína N de la nucleocápside del material genético SARS-CoV-2, los ensayos genes E (upE) y gen de la proteína 1b (ORF 1b) se pueden complementar para la detección y confirmación. Conclusiones: Las dianas que se emplean para la detección específica del genoma del SARS-CoV-2 por RT-PCR en tiempo real, se encuentran en las regiones ORF1a y 1b, RdRp, N, S y E del ARN viral.
ABSTRACT Introduction: Coronaviruses cause respiratory, hepatic or neurological diseases, with variable severity in their host. Real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction is the reference methodology to confirm the detection of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. A bibliographic review was carried out in the period from July to November 2021, in the resources available in MEDLINE, SciELO, Pubmed and Elsevier. Of the total queries, 35 references were cited. Objective: Describe molecular tests for the detection of SARS-CoV-2. Development: Three types of rRT-PCR assays have been designed for the detection of SARS-CoV-2. The tests described are specific for RNA polymerase dependent RNA (RdRp) genes, E (upE) genes, and Nnes (N) genes. The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have developed rRT-PCR directed at the N protein of the nucleocapsid of the SARS-CoV-2 genetic material, the gene E assays (upE) and protein gene 1b (ORF 1b) can be complemented for detection and confirmation. Conclusions: The targets used for the specific detection of the SARS-CoV-2 genome by real-time RT-PCR are found in the ORF1a and 1b, RdRp, N, S and E regions of the viral RNA.

Resumen Objetivo: Determinar la frecuencia de anticuerpos antimitocondriales y de anticuerpos contra antígenos extraíbles del núcleo en pacientes con cirrosis biliar primaria. Material y métodos: Estudio de tipo cuantitativo, observacional y transversal, realizado en el Servicio de Inmunología del Hospital Nacional Arzobispo Loayza entre enero 2018 y marzo 2019. Se revisaron las historias clínicas de 30 pacientes con características presuntivas de cirrosis biliar primaria; para la detección de los anticuerpos antinucleares y anticuerpos antimitocondriales se empleó el kit inmunológico en sangre y observación con microscopio de inmunofluorescencia a 40X y para la detección de los anticuerpos contra antígenos extraíbles del núcleo se empleó el método Immunoblot. Resultados: Se estudiaron 30 pacientes con cirrosis biliar primaria, 20 fueron de sexo femenino (66,7%). El patrón de tinción más frecuente fue el citoplasmático moteado reticular en 17(56,7%), seguido del patrón citoplasmático moteado reticular y patrón moteado en 7(23,3%) pacientes, y en menor frecuencia el patrón citoplasmático moteado reticular y patrón centromérico. Nueve (42,9%) pacientes con cirrosis biliar primaria tenían anti-M2. Se demostró mayor frecuencia, 21(70%) de los pacientes con cirrosis biliar primaria tenían anticuerpos antimitocondriales. Conclusiones: Se encontró alta frecuencia de patrón citoplasmático moteado reticular en pacientes con cirrosis biliar primaria, se demostró asociación significativa con los anti-M2 y anticuerpos antimitocondriales.
Summary Objective: To determine the frequency of antimitochondrial antibodies and antibodies against extractable nucleus antigens in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis. Methods : A quantitative, observational and cross-sectional study was carried out at the Immunology Service of the Arzobispo Loayza National Hospital between January 2018 and March 2019. The medical records of 30 patients with presumptive characteristics of primary biliary cirrhosis were reviewed; for the detection of the antinuclear antibodies and antimitochondrial antibodies, the immunological kit was used in blood and observation with a 40X immunofluorescence microscope, and the Immunoblot method was used for the detection of the antibodies against extractable nucleus antigens. Results: Thirty patients with primary biliary cirrhosis disease were studied, 20 were female (66.7%). The most frequent staining pattern was the reticular mottled cytoplasmic in 17 (56.7%), followed by the reticular mottled cytoplasmic pattern and mottled pattern in 7 (23.3%) patients, and less frequently the reticular mottled cytoplasmic pattern and centromeric. Nine (42.9%) patients with primary biliary cirrhosis had anti-M2. In the present investigation, a higher frequency was demonstrated, 21 (70%) of the patients with primary biliary cirrhosis had antimitochondrial antibodies. Conclusions: A high frequency of reticular mottled cytoplasmic pattern was found in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis; a significant association with anti-M2 and antimitochondrial antibodies was demonstrated.

Objetivos: Determinar la frecuencia de patrones de tinción de anticuerpos antinucleares identificados por inmunofluorescencia indirecta en pacientes con enfermedad del tejido conectivo en un hospital de nivel III de Lima, Perú. Material y métodos: Estudio de tipo cuantitativo, observacional y transversal, realizado en el Servicio de Inmunología del Hospital Nacional Arzobispo Loayza entre enero 2017 y junio 2017. Se revisaron 291 historias clínicas de pacientes con enfermedad del tejido conectivo y con detección de los patrones de tinción de anticuerpos antinucleares en suero, usando la técnica de Inmunofluorescencia Indirecta. Resultados: La frecuencia de estudios de anticuerpos antinucleares fue 322 (100 %), los patrones de anticuerpos antinucleares fueron PCNA6 (1,86%), patrón homogéneo 109(33,85%), patrón centromérico 34(10,56%), patrón moteado 135(41,93%), patrón citoplasmático 25(7,76%), patrón nucleolar 9(2,80%), patrón NUMA 1- Huso Acromático 3(0,93%) y patrón lisosoma 1(0,31%). La positividad de anticuerpos antinucleares se determinó mayormente en pacientes con lupus eritematoso sistémico 85(29.21%), esclerosis sistémica progresiva limitada (CREST) 34(11,68%), síndrome de Sjögren 77(26,46%), esclerodermia 15(5,15%), enfermedades mixtas del tejido conectivo72 (24,74%) y polimiositis 8 (2,75%). Conclusiones: Se encontró elevada frecuencia del patrón homogéneo y del patrón moteado en pacientes con enfermedad del tejido conectivo. El patrón homogéneo se asoció fuertemente al lupus eritematoso sistémico y el patrón moteado se asoció al síndrome de Sjögren. Por lo tanto, el método ANA-IFI puede reducir el gasto de un trabajo inmunológico detallado con una pérdida mínima en la exactitud diagnóstica de la enfermedad. (AU)
