The Regulation of Red Cell Proteins During Erythropoiesis
David Araten, MD
PIG-A and XK as Sentinel Genes to Detect Somatic Mutations
Description
Monoclonal antibodies are an essential tool for cutting-edge research. This workshop will present data on three different research projects in which monoclonal antibodies to blood group antigens carried by proteins are utilized to enable the researcher to study various aspects of anemia, erythropoiesis and identification of mutant genes in patients with PNH.

  • Describe how monoclonal antibodies are used to identify rare mutant cells in normal individuals and in the diagnosis of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH).
  • Discuss antibody-mediated clearance of red cells by Fc receptors and complement.
  • Explain the emergence of blood group carrying proteins during erythropoiesis.
