DETECTION OF AUTO- AND ALLOANTIBODIES AGAINST GRANULOCYTES BY MEANS OF GEL AGGLUTINATION TECHNIQUE

Abstract

Аbstract.  Granulocyte  antigen-specific  autoantibodies  may  be  implicated  into  pathogenesis  of  autoand alloimmune neutropenia, neonatal alloimmune neutropenia, and acute pulmonary insufficiency occurring post-transfusion.  However,  detection  and  identification  of  clinically  significant  granulocyte  antibodies  still represent a technically difficult task. To detect immunoglobulins and/or activated complement on granulocyte surface, we have adapted a Gel Test (ID Micro Typing System, DiaMed, Switzerland) which is commonly applied for diagnostics of RBC-specific antibodies. Our results suggest that the data from this gel test are quite reproducible, and the system may be used for detection of granulocyte-specific antibodies belonging to different immunoglobulin classes.
