Array 5 - Multiple Autoimmune Reactivity Screen

Autoimmune conditions can be complex, often developing quietly over time before clear symptoms appear. By the time a disease is fully diagnosed, significant tissue damage may have already occurred. Early detection is key to preventing progression and preserving long-term health.

The Array 5 – Multiple Autoimmune Reactivity Screen by Cyrex Labs is an advanced, comprehensive tool designed to evaluate immune reactivity across a broad range of tissues and organs. By detecting antibodies associated with more than two dozen autoimmune conditions, this test can reveal early trends in immune dysregulation—even before full-blown disease develops.

This proactive approach allows for early intervention, giving you and your healthcare provider the ability to address potential autoimmune activity before it leads to irreversible tissue damage or widespread inflammation.

Designed to detect early autoimmune reactivity through antibodies targeting several tissues and organs, Array 5 offers pre‑symptomatic insight—making it a valuable component of our Advanced Lab Testing suite.

What Does Array 5 Measure?

Unlike single-condition tests, Array 5 screens for antibodies targeting multiple systems throughout the body, including:

• Nervous system tissues linked to neurological autoimmune conditions

• Joints and muscles, often involved in rheumatoid arthritis or myopathies

• Thyroid tissue, associated with Hashimoto’s or Graves’ disease

• Pancreatic cells, connected to autoimmune diabetes

• Gastrointestinal tract components, tied to conditions like Crohn’s or ulcerative colitis

• Skin and connective tissue proteins, which may trigger conditions like lupus or scleroderma

By mapping your immune system’s reactivity across these diverse targets, this test provides a comprehensive snapshot of your autoimmune risk profile.

Who Should Consider the Array 5 Test?

This screening is ideal for individuals who:

• Experience non-specific symptoms such as fatigue, joint pain, muscle aches, digestive issues, brain fog, or skin rashes

• Have a family history of autoimmune conditions and want to assess their own risk

• Have been diagnosed with one autoimmune disease and want to monitor progression or detect the development of additional autoimmune activity

• Are navigating chronic inflammation or unexplained health issues that haven’t been clearly diagnosed

• Wish to take a proactive approach to immune health before symptoms escalate

By uncovering autoimmune trends at their earliest stages, you can work with your healthcare provider to create personalized strategies that support immune balance and reduce future risk.

Array 5 is ideal if you're experiencing inflammatory symptoms or have a family history of autoimmune conditions. Once you receive your results, our Gut Health & Nutrient Optimization Program offers strategic nutritional support, and you can book a Consultation with Our Expert to review the findings together.

Why Early Detection Matters

Autoimmune conditions typically develop over time. The immune system begins producing antibodies that target the body’s own tissues, often long before noticeable symptoms appear. Catching this silent immune activity early can:

• Prevent or minimize irreversible tissue damage

• Allow for earlier, more effective intervention

• Reduce systemic inflammation and symptom severity

• Improve overall quality of life through targeted, proactive care

By identifying patterns of reactivity before they progress into full disease, you gain the power to intervene strategically and protect long-term health.

Benefits of the Array 5 Test

• Early Detection: Reveals autoimmune responses in their earliest phases, even before a formal diagnosis.

• Broad Insight: Screens for a wide variety of autoimmune targets to give a comprehensive health overview.

• Personalized Care: Helps guide tailored treatment plans and lifestyle changes based on your unique autoimmune profile.

• Proactive Prevention: Reduces the likelihood of progression into multiple autoimmune conditions.
