Autoimmune hemolytic anemia associated with IgG auto anti-N.

A second case of autoimmune hemolytic anemia mediated by an IgG auto Anti-N is described. The patient's red blood cells were sensitized with both IgG and complement. The serum antibody was not inactivated by 2-mercaptoethanol treatment, and reacted by indirect antiglobulin test at 37 C with monospecific anti-IgG. The IgG antibody eluted from the red blood cells and in the serum showed anti-N specificity. The patient was thought to have systemic lupus erythematosus. Following steroid therapy, the hemolytic anemia resolved with disappearance of the anti-N.

Neonatal Th activation.

A case is reported of a 1-month-old infant with bowel obstruction and suspected sepsis whose red cells were found to be Th activated during the course of evaluating weakened A antigen activity. Neither Th activation nor weakened A antigen activity was present on the red cells of either parent. The Th activation and the weak reactivity obtained with commercial anti-A reagents were unrelated.
