Zinc transporter 8 Ab [Units/volume] in Serum or Plasma by Immunoassay
Active
Term Description
Quantitative determination of ZnT8 Ab in serum or plasma. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the BioVendor ZnT8 autoantibody (ZnT8 Ab) ELISA kit, which contains antibodies directed to the C terminal domain of ZnT8 (residues 268 - 369).

Part Descriptions
LP187079-1 Zinc transporter 8
A metallic element (Zn, atomic number 30 and atomic weight 65.38) necessary in the diet. It constitutes an essential part of many enzymes, and plays an important role in protein synthesis and in cell division. Zinc deficiency is associated with anemia, short stature, hypogonadism, impaired wound healing and geophagia.

LP187079-1 Zinc transporter 8
Zinc transporter 8 (ZnT8) is an islet beta-cell secretory membrane protein. ZnT8 autoantibodies (ZnT8A) are present in type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM) and are a marker for disease. When combined with established autoantibody markers, including glutamate decarboxylase (GADA), protein tyrosine phosphatase IA2 (IA2A), antibodies to insulin (IAA), and islet cytoplasmic autoantibodies (ICA), the ZnT8 antibody test improves diagnostic sensitivity in suspected cases of type 1 DM.

- Change Reason
- The EIA method, which was always intended to cover more than just enzyme-linked immunoassay and whose display name for the long common name has always been Immunoassay, was renamed IA in order to eliminate ambiguity about whether the method has a broader meaning than just enzyme-linked immunoassay. Likewise, EIA.rapid was renamed IA.rapid. These changes were approved by the Laboratory LOINC Committee in June 2016.
