Two distinct categories of warm autoantibody reactivity with age-fractionated red cells.
Using age-fractionated erythrocytes, warm autoantibodies can be classified into two distinct categories, depending on their reactivity with reticulocyte-enriched (younger) or reticulocyte-poor (older) red cell fractions. The strength of the direct antiglobulin test (DAT) on the age-fractionated red cells of 24 patients indicated that 19 (79%) had an IgG warm autoantibody that reacted preferenti...
متن کاملAllogeneic red blood cell adsorption for removal of warm autoantibody.
Adsorption studies are usually required to confirm or rule out the presence of underlying alloantibodies in samples containing warm autoantibody. Allogeneic adsorptions are necessary if the patient has been recently transfused. Most commonly, allogeneic adsorptions are performed using a trio of phenotyped reagent red blood cells to rule out clinically significant alloantibodies to common antige...
متن کاملSurface Coating of Red Blood Cells with Monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol) Activated with Two Different Reagents
Methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (mPEG) with molecular mass of 5 kDa activated with succinimidyl carbonate and cyanuric chloride, separately was covalently attached to human red blood cells (RBCs). Inhibition of agglutination by blood-type specific antisera (anti-D) was employed to evaluate the effect of the polymer coating. The remaining single cells after incubation with anti-D sera were cou...
متن کاملTwo Distinct Categories of Focal Deletions in Cancer Genomes
One of the key questions about genomic alterations in cancer is whether they are functional in the sense of contributing to the selective advantage of tumor cells. The frequency with which an alteration occurs might reflect its ability to increase cancer cell growth, or alternatively, enhanced instability of a locus may increase the frequency with which it is found to be aberrant in tumors, reg...
متن کاملHarmless Pregnancy-Induced Warm Autoantibodies to Red Blood Cells
BACKGROUND There is little information concerning the development and significance of autoantibodies (aab) to red blood cells (RBCs) during pregnancy. METHODS Unselected pregnant women were routinely screened for the presence of unexpected antibodies to RBCs using standard techniques. RESULTS Between 2009 and 2013, 153,612 pregnant women were tested. The antibody screening test was positive...
