A Case of Neonatal Neutropenia Due to Anti-Fc Gamma Receptor IIIb Isoantibodies Treated with Recombinant Human Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor [PDF]
Alloimmunization to granulocyte-specific antigens can occur during pregnancy. Maternal antibodies of IgG class can cross the placenta to result in alloimmune neonatal neutropenia.

Objectives: HLA Class I, HPA (Human platelet antigen), CD36 allo/isoantibodies, and platelet glycoprotein autoantibodies are the primary causes of immune-mediated platelet transfusion refractoriness (iPTR).

Modulation of tumor growth by crossreacting isoantibodies
Tumor cells transfected with strong antigenic epitopes were able to stimulate humoral response against relevant wild-type tumors. Crossreacting immune sera have been obtained by immunizing C57BL/6 mice with OVA-transfected leukemia EL-4 (subclone E.G7) and OVA-transfected melanoma B16 (subclone MO.5) stimulated with interferon-gamma.

Cytotoxic Isoantibodies and Immunologic Enhancement in Mice.
Summary1. Cytotoxic isoantibodies and hemagglutinins are stimulated in response to H-2 isoantigenic differences between graft and host in mice. 2. This study offers data correlating cytotoxic isoantibody and immunological enhancement. 3. The mechanism of immunological enhancement has been shown to be associated with peripheral as well as central ...

In vitro characterization of rare anti-αIIbβ3 isoantibodies produced by patients with Glanzmann thrombasthenia that severely block fibrinogen binding and generate procoagulant platelets via complement activation. [PDF]
Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT) is a rare bleeding disorder caused by inherited defects of the platelet αβ integrin. Platelet transfusions can be followed by an immune response that can block integrin function by interfering with fibrinogen binding.

Neonatal immune neutropenia due to isoantibodies against the granulocyte receptor FcγRIIIb
Introduction: neonatal neutropenia is often secondary to sepsis, low birth weight, pregnancy-induced maternal hypertension, and other conditions. Case report: we report a case of asymptomatic isoimmune neutropenia in a pair of preterm twins.

Perioperative Management of Emergency Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in a Patient with Pan-reactive Red Blood Cell Alloantibodies: A Case Report [PDF]
Red Blood Cell (RBC) alloimmunisation poses critical challenges in cardiac surgery, particularly during emergency Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG), due to the risks of haemolytic reactions and incompatible transfusions. This case report details the

Isoantibody Specificity in Post-transfusion Purpura [PDF]
Abstract Antiplatelet antibody in the serum of a fatal case of post-transfusion purpura showed specificity for the PlA1 platelet isoantigen in that the antibody was adsorbed by all PlA1-positive platelets tested but not by PlA1-negative platelets.
