Ferritin(Fer) antigenic antibodies are antibodies produced by the body’s immune system against Ferritin. Ferritin is an important protein that is mainly responsible for storing iron in the body and is involved in regulating physiological processes such as cell growth and metabolism.

When the human immune system is stimulated by infection, inflammation, tumors and other factors, it produces some autoantibodies to fight foreign pathogens or abnormal cells. Antibodies against ferritin are one of them.

Detection of Ferritin(Fer) antigen antibodies can be used to diagnose a number of diseases, such as liver disease, inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, etc. In addition, some tumor patients may also have positive Ferritin(Fer) antigen antibodies.
