An HLA B27 (Human Leukocyte Antigen B27) - PCR test is a blood test that helps to identify the presence of Human Leukocyte Antigen B27(HLA B-27), a specific type of protein that is present on the surface of white blood cells (WBCs) that helps the body's immune system tell the difference between its own cells and foreign/harmful substances. This test is widely available with Tata 1mg labs at an affordable price in Kalyan
Your doctor may suggest an HLA B-27 test if you experience signs and symptoms such as stiffness and chronic pain in the back, neck, or chest, inflammation in eyes, urethra, and joints, the appearance of skin lesions, recurring fever, abdominal pain, or digestive problems indicative of an autoimmune disorder. Additionally, this test is also used during an organ transplant to match donated tissue with a transplant recipient to minimize the risk of organ rejection and improve the success of the transplantation procedure.

What does HLA B27 (Human Leukocyte Antigen B27) - PCR measure?
An HLA B27 (Human Leukocyte Antigen B27) - PCR test is used to determine the presence or absence of the HLA B27 antigen to rule out the possibility of an autoimmune disorder. This gene is found on the surface of certain white blood cells and may increase the risk of developing conditions like ankylosing spondylitis, reactive arthritis, and psoriatic arthritis.
A positive result means the gene is present, and there may be a higher risk of these conditions. A negative result means the gene is not found. However, it is important to know that not having the HLA B27 gene does not fully rule out autoimmune disorders, as some people without the gene can still develop them.
