Heparin-associated thrombocytopenia: antibody binding specificity to platelet antigens.
Sera from four patients with heparin-associated thrombocytopenia (HAT) were evaluated by a quantitative enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect heparin-dependent serum platelet-bindable immunoglobulin (S-PBIg) and by Western blotting and immunoprecipitation to investigate the specificity of the antibody binding. All HAT sera showed mildly increased S-PBIg (mean, 7.8 fg per platelet;...
متن کاملPlatelet antigens in varicella associated thrombocytopenia.
Serum IgG or, predominantly, IgM antibody binding to electrophoretically separated normal platelet membrane protein antigens were detected by immunoblotting in five children with thrombocytopenia associated with varicella. Glycoproteins GPIb, GPIIb, GPIIIa, and other 25-260 kilodalton (kDa) proteins were identified as target antigens, suggesting a transient autoimmune mechanism causing the thro...

متن کاملHuman platelet antigens polymorphisms: Association to primary immune thrombocytopenia in the Iranian patients
Background: Human platelet antigens (HPAs) are part of platelet GP complexes have the potential to contribute to the autoantibody production. Moreover, these antigens demonstrate different patterns of distribution on different ethnic groups and variation in some types of diseases. This study was objected to determine the incidence of HPA-1 to -5 and -15 polymorphisms in the Iranians suffering f...
متن کاملThe demonstration of antibody binding to platelet-associated antigens in patients with immune thrombocytopenic purpura.
Platelet destruction in chronic immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is due either to antibody against platelet-associated antigen(s) that attaches by the antigen-specific Fab portion of the molecule or to platelet-bound immune complexes that bind nonspecifically to a platelet Fc receptor. Since pepsin digestion destroys the Fc fragment, the effect of this agent on platelet binding should allo...
