Immunosciences Lab, Inc.
About Immunosciences Lab
Immunosciences Lab (ISL) is a leading clinical reference and research laboratory specializing in molecular medicine. Located in Los Angeles, California, ISL has been at the forefront of clinical immunology since its inception in 1989. The lab employs highly sensitive and accurate testing methods to detect Lyme disease, autoimmunity, and viral infections, having successfully identified over 80 autoimmune diseases to date.
Cutting-Edge Diagnostic Testing
Immunosciences Lab is renowned for its patented and research-backed methods, particularly in detecting antibodies against Lyme disease and other tick-borne diseases such as Babesia, Ehrlichia, and Bartonella. These methods are considered among the most sensitive available, ensuring precise and early detection of these complex conditions.
Specialized Diagnostic Panels
-
Autoimmunity Panels ISL’s autoimmunity panels target more than 80 identified autoimmune diseases. Given the overlapping symptoms of many autoimmune conditions, these panels provide crucial early and accurate diagnoses, preventing significant symptom escalation.
-
Lyme Disease Panels Diagnosing Lyme disease can be challenging due to its symptom overlap with other conditions like Alzheimer’s, autism, chronic fatigue syndrome, and fibromyalgia. ISL’s advanced diagnostic techniques, combined with clinical symptom assessment, ensure accurate detection of Lyme disease.
-
Viral Infection Panels ISL focuses on the role of viruses such as HHV-6 in autoimmunity, exploring how these viruses can impair T-cell functions and potentially over-activate the immune system. Accurate and timely diagnosis is emphasized to manage these complex interactions effectively.
-
Autoimmune Viral Trio Panel This panel examines the intersection of viral infections and autoimmune responses, particularly how certain viruses can trigger autoimmune diseases. It includes:
- SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19): Known to provoke varied immune responses, potentially leading to autoimmune conditions.
- Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV): Linked to numerous autoimmune and proliferative disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis.
- Human Herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6): Common in early childhood, this virus can reactivate and influence conditions like chronic fatigue syndrome and multiple sclerosis.
