What is the Endomysial Antibody IgA test?
The Endomysial Antibody IgA test, also known as the EMA test, is a simple blood test that evaluates if you have celiac disease and dermatitis herpetiformis by detecting the specific antibodies (IgA) in your blood. Endomysial antibodies (EMAs) are produced against gluten. In celiac disease, the immune system reacts abnormally to a protein called gluten.
When is the Endomysial Antibody IgA test recommended?
It is recommended:For the diagnosis of dermatitis herpetiformis and celiac disease. It is used for monitoring adherence to the gluten-free diet in patients with dermatitis herpetiformis and celiac disease. This is because of the high specificity of endomysial antibodies for celiac disease that the test may obviate the need for multiple small bowel biopsies to verify the diagnosis.This protein also causes dermatitis herpetiformis, a long-term (chronic) skin condition that causes itchiness and blisters.
