Platelet antigens and antibodies in multitransfused patients
Abstract Background and Objectives Following incompatible blood transfusions, anti-HLA and anti- HPA antibodies may develop and cause various disorders such as post-transfusion purpura, platelet refractoriness, and thrombocytopenia leading to bleeding. The aim of this study was to investigate platelet antigens and antibodies in multi-transfused patients. Materials and Methods In this desc...
متن کاملPlatelet and granulocyte pheresis.
The need for sophisticated component therapy has resulted in improved techniques for obtaining concentrates of platelets and granulocytes. The use of single donors as a source for these products is advisable to avoid multiple sensitizations. A method for obtaining large quantities of platelets has been established rather easily. Obtaining concentrated granulocytes represents a greater problem o...
متن کاملEvaluation of platelet antigens and antibodies in patients with platelet refractoriness
Abstract Background and Objectives Immune platelet refractoriness is a complication of blood transfusion in patients with multiple platelet transfusions. Antibodies against surface antigens, including human platelet antigens (HPAs) and human leukocyte antigens (HLAs), can be produced which can cause the degradation of transfused platelets by macrophages. In this study, the frequency of platele...
متن کاملMolecular Testing in Microbiology
There are significant challenges associated with qualitative and quantitative nucleic acid tests performed in diagnostic laboratories. The development of internationally available certified reference materials which can be traced to reference measurements will contribute to a better understanding of the performance characteristics of nucleic acid tests and enhance reliability and comparability ...
متن کاملPlatelet antigens and antibody detection.
Platelets are anucleate blood cells, which play an important part in haemostasis and maintenance of the integrity of blood-vessel endothelium. Interaction of platelet glycoproteins (GPs) with extracellular matrix proteins is critical to this function. The original impetus for investigating the alloantigens found on the GPs of the platelet membrane came from clinical observations of pathological...
