Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), commonly referred to as just lupus, is an autoimmune disease. One method of diagnosis is to perform an antibody titer (measure of antibodies) to assess if auto-antibodies are present. A pam has the antibody titer done, and zero antibodies are present. Does this indicate that the patient has lupus? Why or why not? If there are not antibodies specific for lupus, the patient does not have the disease. Antibodies are produced in response to specific antigens and are used as a diagnostic tool for many diseases. Antibodies are only produced once B cells are exposed to the specific antigen. O If there are not antibodies specific for lupus, the patient may still have lupus because lupus attacks and destroys B cells before they can produce antibodies. O If there are not antibodies specific for lupus, the patient may have the disease. Antibodies are not always formed in response to specific antigens and are not always present when exposed to a pathogen. O If there are not antibodies specific for lupus, the patient does not have the disease. Antibodies are produced by T cells in response to exposure of a pathogen.
