Four mule foals received anti-RBC antibody from their dam's colostrum. Two foals developed anemia, 1 developed severe thrombocytopenia, and 1 did not develop any clinical or laboratory abnormalities. All foals had the same donkey sire. Seven mares, including the dams of foals 1 to 4, bred to the donkey sire produced anti-RBC antibody. Two mares produced anti-RBC antibody to the donkey RBC on the first mating. The donkey sire and 18 of its offspring were found to have an RBC antigen unique to mules and donkeys. Thus, all matings of this donkey to horse mares were incompatible. The reason for the high rate of sensitization of mares bred to this donkey is unknown.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007518 Isoantibodies Antibodies from an individual that react with ISOANTIGENS of another individual of the same species. Alloantibodies
D007519 Isoantigens Antigens that exist in alternative (allelic) forms in a single species. When an isoantigen is encountered by species members who lack it, an immune response is induced. Typical isoantigens are the BLOOD GROUP ANTIGENS. Alloantigens,Alloantigen,Isoantigen
D008297 Male Males
D001787 Blood Group Incompatibility An antigenic mismatch between donor and recipient blood. Antibodies present in the recipient's serum may be directed against antigens in the donor product. Such a mismatch may result in a transfusion reaction in which, for example, donor blood is hemolyzed. (From Saunders Dictionary & Encyclopedia of Laboratory Medicine and Technology, 1984).

D003433 Crosses, Genetic Deliberate breeding of two different individuals that results in offspring that carry part of the genetic material of each parent. The parent organisms must be genetically compatible and may be from different varieties or closely related species. Cross, Genetic,Genetic Cross,Genetic Crosses

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
