Know more about this test

The Hypersensitive Pneumonitis Profile - Basic is a group of allergen-specific IgG antibody tests that help identify immune reactions caused by inhaled organic antigens. This panel aids in diagnosing hypersensitive pneumonitis, a lung condition triggered by repeated exposure to environmental allergens. It is widely available in Pune with Tata 1mg labs at an affordable price.

This panel is tailored to identify sensitization to particular environmental antigens to assist in the diagnosis of hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP). It is particularly beneficial for those with symptoms of chronic cough, dyspnea, or fatigue, especially those with exposure to birds, mold, or organic dust in occupational or environmental exposures. Doctors may also order this test for individuals who have recurrent pneumonia or pneumonitis. The panel is also vital for diagnosing diffuse interstitial lung disease (ILD) when HP is suspected. Early diagnosis is necessary to prevent severe complications such as lung scarring (pulmonary fibrosis) or compromised lung function due to restrictive lung disease.

No special preparation is required for the test. Additionally, it informs your doctor about any medications you are taking or any recent infections, as these can affect results.

Understanding Hypersensitive Pneumonitis Profile - Basic

Hypersensitive pneumonitis (HP), or extrinsic allergic alveolitis, is an inflammatory lung condition. It occurs due to repeated exposure to environmental allergens (antigens) such as mold, fungal spores, bird droppings, and other organic particles. This repeated exposure can cause abnormal immune reactions, resulting in inflammation in the alveoli (small air spaces of the lungs) and impairing the function of the lungs.

The Hypersensitive Pneumonitis Profile - Basic tests for certain immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against a variety of common allergens associated with hypersensitivity pneumonitis. These include:

  • Penicillium chrysogenum: a widespread indoor mold that grows in moist places. 
  • Cladosporium herbarum: a common airborne fungus responsible for respiratory allergies. 
  • Mucor racemosus: an occupational HP-related soil-borne mold. 
  • Alternaria alternata: a fungal species of allergen that worsens respiratory conditions.
  • Aspergillus fumigatus: a fungus responsible for allergic and hypersensitive lung disease. 
  • Pigeon serum proteins, feathers, and droppings: common allergens in individuals exposed to birds, frequently present in "bird fancier's lung.

This panel is tailored to identify sensitization to particular environmental antigens, helping diagnose HP. It is particularly beneficial for those with symptoms like chronic cough, dyspnea, and fatigue, especially if they are exposed to birds, mold, or dust at work or home. Doctors may also order this test for individuals who have recurrent pneumonia or pneumonitis. The panel is also vital for diagnosing diffuse interstitial lung disease (ILD) when HP is suspected. Early diagnosis is necessary to prevent severe complications such as lung scarring (pulmonary fibrosis) or compromised lung function due to restrictive lung disease.

No special preparation is required for the test. Additionally, patients should inform their doctor about any medications being taken or any recent infections, as these can affect results.

Test result ranges are approximate and may differ slightly between labs depending on the methodology and laboratory guidelines. Do not self-medicate, and always consult a doctor to understand the test results correctly.

Please note: This is an outsourced test. The sample for this test is collected by TATA 1MG and processed at a NABL accredited partnered lab.

What does Hypersensitive Pneumonitis Profile - Basic measure?

Contains 6 tests

The Hypersensitive Pneumonitis Profile - Basic measures specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against a range of inhaled organic antigens. High IgG levels against fungi like Penicillium, Cladosporium, Alternaria, and Aspergillus, or against bird proteins, show that your immune system has been exposed to these allergens and may be causing lung inflammation. In asymptomatic individuals  with antigen exposure, the presence of elevated specific IgG antibodies only indicates exposure-induced sensitization and not a disease. These results help doctors differentiate hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) from other lung problems like asthma, COPD, or lung infections. Early detection and avoidance of the triggering antigen can help reduce lung inflammation and prevent permanent lung damage.
