Immunochemical study of incomplete platelet autoantibodies by the anti-globulin consumption test (AGCT) with specific anti-immunoglobulin sera. 1976

E Fagiolo

The indirect anti-globulin consumption test (AGCT) with specific immunoglobulin antisera (anti-IgG and anti-IgM) has been applied to the immunochemical characterization of incomplete platelet auto-antibodies in 33 patients with idiophatic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AHA). In these cases indirect AGCT on platelets was positive with polyvalent gamma antiserum. The test with anti-IgG was positive in all cases except two, while always negative with anti-IgM, with no relation to the presence of complete platelet antibodies, the type of disease and the immunochemical type of erythrocyte autoantibodies in AHA patients. These results indicate that the incomplete platelets auto-antibodies were of the IgG class.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007074 Immunoglobulin G The major immunoglobulin isotype class in normal human serum. There are several isotype subclasses of IgG, for example, IgG1, IgG2A, and IgG2B.

D007075 Immunoglobulin M A class of immunoglobulin bearing mu chains (IMMUNOGLOBULIN MU-CHAINS). IgM can fix COMPLEMENT. The name comes from its high molecular weight and originally was called a macroglobulin. Gamma Globulin, 19S,IgM,IgM Antibody,IgM1,IgM2,19S Gamma Globulin,Antibody, IgM
D007223 Infant A child between 1 and 23 months of age. Infants
D008180 Lupus Erythematosus, Systemic A chronic, relapsing, inflammatory, and often febrile multisystemic disorder of connective tissue, characterized principally by involvement of the skin, joints, kidneys, and serosal membranes. It is of unknown etiology, but is thought to represent a failure of the regulatory mechanisms of the autoimmune system. The disease is marked by a wide range of system dysfunctions, an elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and the formation of LE cells in the blood or bone marrow.

D003298 Coombs Test A test to detect non-agglutinating ANTIBODIES against ERYTHROCYTES by use of anti-antibodies (the Coombs' reagent.) The direct test is applied to freshly drawn blood to detect antibody bound to circulating red cells. The indirect test is applied to serum to detect the presence of antibodies that can bind to red blood cells.
