What is P-ANCA (Perinuclear anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies) Test?

Perinuclear anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (p-ANCA) are antibodies that stain the material surrounding a neutrophil's nucleus. They are a type of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody.

Because the vast majority of the antigens targeted by ANCAs are highly cationic (positively charged) at pH 7.00, this pattern occurs. During ethanol fixation (pH 7.0 in water), more cationic antigens migrate and localise around the nucleus, attracted by its negatively charged DNA content. Antibody staining causes fluorescence in the region around the nucleus.
