Red blood cell alloimmunization in Iran: A Comprehensive review of the literature
Background: Alloimmunization is an immune response against foreign antigens which introduced into the body through transfusion, pregnancy, or transplantation. This phenomenon is a big challenge in patients, which require regular transfusions.

Leucoreduction of blood components. an effective way to increase blood safety? [PDF]
Over the past 30 years, it has been demonstrated that removal of white blood cells from blood components is effective in preventing some adverse reactions such as febrile non-haemolytic transfusion reactions, immunisation against human leucocyte antigens

Reticulocytes in donor blood units enhance red blood cell alloimmunization
Although red blood cell (RBC) transfusions save lives, some patients develop clinically-significant alloantibodies against donor blood group antigens, which then have adverse effects in multiple clinical settings. Few effective measures exist to prevent

Neonatal Alloimmune Neutropenia [PDF]
Neonatal alloimmune neutropenia (NAIN, NAIN or NIN) is a neutrophil blood group antagonism, analogous to hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) and fetal/neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT). A limited number of prospective screening studies showed that granulocyte-specific antibodies were detectable in 0.35-1.1% of random postnatal ...

Isohemagglutinins of Graft Origin after ABO-Unmatched Liver Transplantation [PDF]
THE increasing success of liver transplantation in recent years has provided an experimental model to study and document the hepatic synthesis of many plasma proteins.12345 The normal hepatobiliary tract has not been regarded as a major source of ...

Red cell antibody problems in 1000 liver transplants [PDF]
Liver transplant patients frequently require large amounts of blood. The frequency and nature of their red cell (RBC) antibody problems were examined. Records were reviewed in 496 adults and 286 children undergoing 1000 consecutive transplants.

The Association of CD81 Polymorphisms with Alloimmunization in Sickle Cell Disease
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

Type 1 Interferon Gene Signature Promotes RBC Alloimmunization in a Lupus Mouse Model
Red blood cell (RBC) transfusion exposes recipients to hundreds of unmatched minor RBC antigens. This exposure can lead to production of alloantibodies that promote clinically significant hemolytic events.

The adverse impact on liver transplantation of using positive cytotoxic crossmatch donors [PDF]
Because of the liver graft's ability to resist cytotoxic antibody-mediated rejection, it has become dogma that the conventional transplant crossmatch used to avoid hyperacute rejection of other organs is irrelevant to the liver.
