Pregnancy is an “immunological Paradox”. This is because pregnant women are tolerant of their semi-allogeneic fetus but are not immunosuppressed and indeed make strong antibody responses. The immunological changes required are driven mainly by th

During pregnancy, women are tolerant of their semi-allogeneic fetus whilst not being immunosuppressed and indeed readily form alloantibodies. This 'Immunological Paradox of Pregnancy' may be explained by an understanding of placental anatomy and immu

Summary For 40 years prophylactic anti-D has been given to D-negative women after parturition to prevent haemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn. Monoclonal or recombinant anti-D may provide alternatives to the current plasma-derived polyclonal I

Prophylactic anti-D is a very safe and effective therapy for the suppression of D-immunization and prevention of haemolytic disease of the foetus and newborn. The primary mode of action of anti-D is rapid clearance of fetal D-positive red cells from

Fetomaternal haemorrhage (FMH) assessment by the Kleihauer-Betke test (KBT) is rapid but semi-quantitative and liable to false positive results.To compare FMH estimated by KBT with flow cytometry (FC) quantitation for 37 patients with massive FMH, ob

Placental trophoblast cells were cultured on filters that allow access to medium bathing the apical and basal surfaces of cells. Purified human IgG was added to either the apical or the basal chambers and sampled at intervals of up to 100min for dete

BACKGROUND: Determination of the volume of fetal D-positive cells in the circulation of D-negative women after delivery is carried out to determine whether additional prophylactic anti-D should be given to the mother. Although the Kleihauer-Betke tes

Anti-D and anti-c monoclonal antibodies (MABS) were found to be heterogeneous with respect to their activity in five cell-mediated functional assays. The two IgG3 MABS promoted greater rosette formation of red cells with monocytes than the IgG1 MABS.

Summary The human platelet antigen-1a (HPA-1a) is the most common alloantigenic target in fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (NAIT). Treatment currently depends on the outcome in previous pregnancies. HPA-1 specific T cell responses were
