The Association of CD81 Polymorphisms with Alloimmunization in Sickle Cell Disease [PDF]

Clinical and Developmental Immunology, 2013
The goal of the present work was to identify the candidate genetic markers predictive of alloimmunization in sickle cell disease (SCD). Red blood cell (RBC) transfusion is indicated for acute treatment, prevention, and abrogation of some complications of

Alloimmunization in multitransfused liver disease patients: Impact of underlying disease

Asian Journal of Transfusion Science, 2016
Introduction: Transfusion support is vital to the management of patients with liver diseases. Repeated transfusions are associated with many risks such as transfusion-transmitted infection, transfusion immunomodulation, and alloimmunization.

Red cell alloimmunization in multitransfused hepatobiliary patients at hospital Selayang

Asian Journal of Transfusion Science
BACKGROUND: Transfusion support is vital for the management of patients with hepatobiliary disease. Repeated blood transfusions increase the risk of alloimmunization, i.e., the development of alloantibodies, which might lead to difficulties in blood ...

Storage-Induced Platelet Apoptosis Is a Potential Risk Factor for Alloimmunization Upon Platelet Transfusion

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Platelet transfusion can elicit alloimmune responses leading to alloantibody formation against donor-specific polymorphic residues, ultimately resulting in platelet transfusion refractoriness.
