Abstract excerpt
Systems HPA-1 (Pla); HPA-3 (Bak) HPA-5 (Br) are involved in neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia and post-transfusion purpura. The frequencies of platelet-specific antigens in these three systems have been studied among one hundred one unrelated blood donors from Provence (South of France) for three generations. Typing was performed by the MAIPA test (monoclonal antibody-specific immobilization platelet antigen)....
