Emergence of red blood cell alloantibodies and transfusion management in patients with warm autoantibodies at a tertiary care centre in British Columbia, Canada. [PDF]
Vox SangAbstract Background and Objectives The presence of warm autoantibodies (WAAs) complicates pre‐transfusion and compatibility testing. Despite attempts to provide antigen‐matched red blood cells (RBCs), the risk of alloimmunization remains. Rates of alloimmunization and indications for transfusion were reviewed to streamline testing and RBC provision ...

Pathophysiology of Alloimmunization [PDF]
Transfusion Medicine and Hemotherapy, 2019 <b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Alloimmunization is caused by exposure to erythrocytes from a donor that expresses blood group antigens other than those of the recipient and is related to processes that alter the balance of the immune system. Knowing the pathophysiology of alloimmunization process is essential to understand clinical

Frontiers in Medicine, 2018 Alloimmunization is currently the most frequent adverse blood transfusion event. Whilst completely matched donor blood would nullify the alloimmunization risk, this is practically infeasible.

Micromanaging alloimmunity [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2016 Increasing evidence indicates that microbes have a large influence on immune function. Previous studies have linked pathogenic microorganisms with decreased allograft tolerance and subsequent rejection. In this issue of the JCI, Lei and colleagues demonstrate that commensal organisms also influence the host response to allograft transplantation.

Intraoperative blood transfusions in highly alloimmunized patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation. [PDF]
, 1989 Intraoperative blood requirements were analyzed in patients undergoing primary orthotopic liver transplantation and divided into two groups on the basis of panel reactive antibody of pretransplant serum measured by lymphocytotoxicity testing.
