43 Antigens
Landsteiner and Levine rabbits with human RBC
MNS
Antithetical antigens of MNS
M and N Antigens
(Only one can be expressed)
Antibodies reproted in 1927 by Lands. and Lev.
Anti-M and N
Walsh and Montgomery found what?
S antigen
In 1951, what antigen was found
s antigen
Weiner found this antigen in 1953
U antigen or Universal Antigen
Major sialic acid-rich glycoprotein or sialoglycoprotein
Glycophorin A of the M and N Antigen
(Responsible for gene expression of M and N)
These are found in GPA, well developed at birth, easilty destroyed by enzymes.
M and N Antigens
Located at glycoprotein GPB, less degen by enzymes
S and s
S and s is differentiated by amino acid
29th position
S methionine
s threonine
Naturally occ saline agglu
Reacts at >37
50-80% IgG
Do not bind compl regardlss of anti class
Anti-M
Not react with enz treat cell
reacts better with MM genotype than MN genotype
aka dosing effect on the MM
Anti-M
MM (+3)
MN (+1 or 0)
Anti-M is enhanced by
serum:cell ratio
more incub time
less incub temp
use of agents
rx best 6,5
reacts to rbc exposed to glu
insignificant as long as not in 37
rare HTR or HDN
Anti-M
Cold reac saline agglu IgM or IgG
dosage effect
not bind to compl
not react to enz treat cell
see in renal dialysis patients sterilized by formaldehyde***
Anti-N
Anti-Nf (Renal Patients)
Assoc. with rej. of chilled transplanted kidneys
Anti-Nf
IgG reactive to 37 and AHG
Dosage eff
clinically significatn **
HTR and HDN
Anti S and s
MNS chromosome, gene, and expression
4
GYPA and GYPB (Mutation = MNS mutation)
Codominant
Anti-M lectin
Iberis amara
Anti-N lectin
Bauhinia variegata
Bauhina purpurea
Vicea graminea
GPB
high incidence ag
U phenotype
produced by lack of GPB
IgG
can cause HTR and HDN
Anti-U
may serve as recep for E coli
GPA
