Passive modulation of blood-group antigens.
Rh-positive erythrocytes were enriched and depleted of membrane cholesterol, and the mediated change in the degree of exposure of the D antigens was determined by fluorescence-activated cell sorting, using indirect fluorescent antibody labeling. The results are compatible with a model in which the expression of the D antigens can be modulated significantly by the lipid microviscosity (eta). At ...
متن کاملBiological roles of blood group antigens.
Recognition and application of blood group differences on human red cells permitted the development of safe procedures for blood transfusion. Blood group antigens are markers on surface-exposed red cell proteins or the sugar moiety of glycoproteins or glycolipids. Apart from their presumed biological function, some antigens have been identified as receptors for host/parasite interactions. Thus,...
متن کاملAntigens of group A streptococci involved in passive hemagglutination reactions.
Antibodies to streptococcal extracellular products were detected in rabbit sera by passive hemagglutination tests as early as 1 week after intravenous injection of live group A streptococci (strain C203S). Using these antibodies in immunoadsorbent columns, we prepared an antigenic fraction from crude concentrates of streptococcal extracellular products. The specific activity of this fraction in...
متن کاملBlood group-related antigens in human kidney: modulation of Lewis determinants in renal cell carcinoma.
Seven mouse monoclonal antibodies and the lectin Ulex europaeus, detecting blood group related antigens of the ABH and Lewis systems, have been used to determine the immunophenotype of human renal cell carcinomas. Immunohistochemical analyses have demonstrated that these antigenic systems are differentially expressed by distinct normal cell types and domains of the human nephron. In the present...
متن کاملRelationship of blood groups to pemphigus: Do blood group antigens have a biological role? A Case-control study
Background: ABO blood group antigens may play a role in the pathophysiology of certain diseases. Several studies have investigated the relation between blood group and autoimmune disorders. In this research, we evaluated the associations between ABO blood types and rhesus (Rh) factor in pemphigus patients.Methods: In this case-control, hospital-based study, we evaluated the prevalence of blood ...
