The choice of new treatments in autoimmune hemolytic anemia: how to pick from the basket?
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is defined by increased erythrocyte turnover mediated by autoimmune mechanisms. While corticosteroids remain first-line therapy in most cases of warm-antibody AIHA, cold agglutinin disease is treated by targeting the ...

Lipooligosaccharides (LOS) of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitidis have components that are immunochemically similar to precursors of human blood group antigens. Carbohydrate sequence specificity of the mouse monoclonal antibodies that recognize crossreacting antigens on LOS and human erythrocytes. [PDF]
We have used mouse mAbs, 3F11 and 06B4, that are specific for highly conserved epitopes of Neisseria gonorrhoeae lipooligosaccharides (LOS) to identify immunochemically similar structures on human erythrocytes. mAb 3F11 agglutinated erythrocytes from all

Cold agglutinins and deep hypothermia [PDF]
SummaryA case is reported of cardiac surgery under deep hypothermia in a child with cold agglutinins with a brief discussion of the significance of different types of cold agglutinins. The screening potential of routine cross‐matching for significant cold agglutinins is emphasised.

Abstract Background To understand cellular morphology, biologists have relied on traditional optical microscopy of tissues combined with tissue clearing protocols to image structures deep within tissues. Unfortunately, these protocols often struggle to retain cell boundary markers, especially at high enough resolutions necessary for precise cell ...

Abstract Objective To investigate the role of ST3 beta‐galactoside alpha‐2,3‐sialyltransferase 1 (ST3Gal1) in endometrial cancer (EC) progression and its potential as a therapeutic target to enhance the efficacy of antiangiogenic treatment. Methods ST3Gal1 expression and its clinical relevance were analyzed in EC tissues.

Validation of a Polymerase Chain Reaction technique for Kidd blood group genotyping [PDF]
The Kidd blood group antigens, Jkª and Jkᵇ , are two of the main surface markers which are found on the membrane of red blood cells. The determination of whether a donor or a recipient has the Jkª and/or the Jkᵇ antigens is crucially important to ...

Advances in Molecularly Imprinted Polymers for Bone Biomarker Detection and Therapeutic Applications
This review highlights the emerging applications of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) in bone regeneration and diagnosis. MIPs facilitate osteogenic treatments by guiding stem cell differentiation and delivering bioactive molecules and enable precise detection of bone turnover biomarkers via MIP‐based sensors, offering promising strategies for next‐

A unique case of red blood cell agglutination reaction on glass surface in otherwise normal sample
Autoimmune hemolytic anemias (AIHAs) are not very common, and autoimmunity is an important cause of hemolytic anemia, especially in female population. Some primary AIHAs are cold or warm agglutinin mediated anemia. Autoimmune reaction leads to macrophage
