적혈구 동종면역은 수혈자와 공여자간의 적혈구 항원의 차이이다. 수혈을 위해서는 혈구형과 혈청형이 일치하지 않으면 적혈구 항체 선별 검사가 필요하며 불일치의 원인을 해명하는 것이 필수적이다. 적혈구 항체 선별검사는 임상적으로 유의한 항체를 검출하고, 신속 정확하며, 신뢰할 수 있는 방법으로 수혈에 앞서 우선적으로 하는 것을 권장한다. 본 연구자들은 다빈도로 검출된 E, D, M, E+c, C+e 항체에 대한 선별검사를 보고하였다. 따라서 이러한 결과로 항-D, 항-E의 항체가 신생아 용혈성 질환, 지연형 용혈성 수혈부작용 반응의 위험요인으로 인식하고자 한다. 또한 혈액안전관리를 적용하기 위해 적합한 항체선별검사가 요구되고, 수혈 위험요인의 선별에 있어 더 나은 효율성을 제공할 것이며 향후에 각 국가에 따라 실질적인 검출빈도를 찾는 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Alloimmunization to red blood cell (RBC) antigens may cause a delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions (DHTR) and a delayed serologic transfusion reactions (DSTR). In the present study, the frequency of alloimmunization and its clinical significance were evaluated. Also, transfusions were correlated with antibody formation. Alloimmunization rate was 0.63%. Alloimmunization rate in multiple transfused patients was 24.5%. The most common clinically significant alloantibodies of alloimmunized patients were found to be Rh antibodies (52.6%). Nine patients out of 38 (23.7%) became undetectable after the first detection. To be positive at antibody screening test after RBC transfusion was mean transfused numbers: 3.7 units, mean transfused periods: 56 days, mean transfused frequencies: 1.7 times. The results from antibody specificity and RBC transfusions were comparatively analyzed and it shows that Rh system antibodies were longer than other antibodies (P<0.05). In case of disease group, malignant diseases was longer than other diseases (P<0.05). In order to prevent the formation of RBC alloimmunization, irregular antibody screening tests were performed at propriety intervals in multiple transfused patients.

Antibody screening and identification tests before blood transfusion are important because unexpected red antibodies can cause acute or delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions. Although a tube method was used for detecting unexpected antibodies, a column agglutination method has recently been used because of its simple procedure and a high detection of warm antibodies. This study investigated the frequency and distribution of unexpected antibodies in transfusion candidates during the recent 5 years, and transfusion characteristics in the identified cases. From January 2005 to December 2009, 46,923 sera of the cases from E hospital were screened and 98 sera were identified by the DiaMed-ID System. 272 cases (0.58%) showed positive results out of all 46,923 cases that underwent unexpected antibodies screening. Among them, unexpected antibodies were identified in 98 cases. The anti-Rh antibodies included in warm antibodies were the most frequently detected in 47 cases (47.96%). Anti-Lewis and anti-MNSs antibodies were detected in 11 cases (11.22%) and 6 cases (6.12%), respectively. Unidentified antibodies were detected in 6 cases (6.12%). Among the patients with unexpected antibodies, 43 cases (43.88%) had a history of previous transfusion. Anti-E was the most frequently detected antibody (4/14 cases, 30.77%) in the cases who had a previous history of transfusion and showed different screening results from negative to positive, This study may provide the basic data for the frequency and characteristics of red cell antibodies.

Using a hybridoma technique, spleen cells of Balb/c mice immunized with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) were fused with NS-1 mouse myeloma cells. Two hybrid cell lines, clones KS-8 and KS-19, secreting monoclonal antibodies to hCG, were isolated. KS-8 and KS-19 belong to the immunoglobulin $G_1$ subclass. With the aid of a double-antibody radioimmunoassay, it was established that the KS-8 monoclonal antibody recognizes an immunodeterminant of the $\beta$-subunit of hCG, whereas the KS-19 monoclonal antibody recognizes an epitope present on the $\alpha$-subunit of hCG. The KS-8 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with human chorionic gonadotropin and shows cross-reactivity of less than 0.3% to other related human glycoprotein hormones. On the other hand, using a hemagglutination test based on antibody-induced agglutination of sheep red blood cells coated with hCG, It was shown that only the KS-19 monoclonal antibody was capable of inducing a positive reaction, although both monoclonal antibodies had similar binding capacity to the coated cells. The results from the dual screening procedures demonstrate that KS-8 and KS-19 monoclonal antibodies show high sensitivity in two different assays, and are hence useful for the qualitative and quantitative determination of hCG by both radioimmunoassay and hemagglutination inhibition tests.

Hemolytic disease in a newborn that causes early jaundice is common. It is often due to the Rh (D) and ABO incompatibility, but rarely due to unexpected antibodies. Among these unexpected antibodies, the anti-$Di^a$Dia antibody rarely occurs. The anti-$Di^a$ antibody was observed in the serum and red-cell eluate of an infant, and in the serum of his mother. The frequency of the appearance of the $Di^a$ antigen in the Korean population is estimated to be 6.4-14.5%. This paper reports a case of hemolytic disease in a newborn associated with the anti-$Di^a$ antibody. A full-term male infant was transferred to the authors' hospital due to hyperbilirubinemia the day after his birth. The laboratory data indicated a hemoglobin value of 11.6 g/dL, a reticulocyte count of 10.6%, a total bilirubin count of 14.4 mg/dL, a direct bilirubin count of 0.6 mg/dL, and a positive result in the direct Coombs' test. Due to the identification of an irregular antibody from the maternal serum, an anti-$Di^a$ antibody was detected, which was also found in the eluate made from the infant's blood. The infant had been treated with phototherapy and intravenous immunoglobulin since the second day after his birth and was discharged due to an improved condition without exchange transfusion. Therefore, in cases of iso-immune hemolytic disease in a newborn within 24 hours from birth who had a negative result in an antibody screening test, the conduct of an anti-$Di^a$ antibody identification test is recommended due to the suspicion of an anti-$Di^a$ antigen, followed by early administration of intravenous immunoglobulin.

배경: 혈액은행 자동화 검사장비는 혈액은행 검사 결과의 질 향상에 도움이 될 것이다. 최근 자동화 장비 DAYMATE M이 개발되어, 이에 대한 성능을 검증하였다. 방법: 서울성모병원과 인천성모병원에서 수집한 300개의 혈액 검체를 가지고 ABO와 RhD 검사를 실시하였다. 또한, 336개의 검체를 이용해 항체선별검사(AST)를 진행하였고, 골수 이식을 받은 82명의 환자에 대해서도 동일한 검사를 진행하였다. DAYMATE M와 비교하기 위한 수동검사는 DS-SCREEING II (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Switzerland)와 Selectogen (Ortho-Clinical diagnostics Inc., USA)을 사용하였다. 결과: 전체 300개의 혈액 검체는 A형 87개, B형 73개, O형 79개, 그리고 AB형 61개로 이뤄져 있다. DAYMATE M과의 일치율은 혈구형 검사에서는 99.9%, 혈청형 검사에서는 97.0%였다. 혈구형 검사에서 불일치한 검체 1개는 수기법에서는 AB형으로 나왔지만 DAYMATE M에서는 B형으로 나왔고, 혈청형 검사에서 나온 불일치 결과 6개는 모두 A형 검체가 DAYMATE에서 anti-B가 검출되지 않은 경우였다. 336개의 항체선별검사의 일치율은 93.2%였다. 136개의 양성 검체 중 불일치 결과는 6개였다. 골수 이식을 받은 82명의 환자들을 대상으로 한 검사 결과, ABO 검사결과의 일치율은 92.2%였다. 6개의 불일치 결과 중 4개는 DAYMATE M에서만 공여자형으로 판독되었고, 나머지 2개는 수기법에서만 공여자형으로 판독되었다. 결론: 혈액은행 자동화 검사 장비 DAYMATE M은 ABO, RhD 검사, 항체선별검사에서 기존의 수기법과 높은 일치율을 보였고, 조혈모세포이식을 받은 환자를 대상으로 검사할 때에도 좋은 성능을 나타냈다.
