Patients with IgG1-anti-red blood cell autoantibodies show aberrant Fc-glycosylation

Abstract Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is a potentially severe disease in which red blood cells (RBC) are destroyed by IgG anti-RBC autoantibodies which can lead to hemolysis. We recently found IgG Fc-glycosylation towards platelet and RBC alloantigens to be skewed towards decreased fucosylatio...
