Unusual suppression of Kell system antigens in a healthy blood donor.

Transfusion - 1 Jan 2000

Norman P C, Daniels G L

Abstract excerpt

Red cells of a Kp(a+) donor, ascertained as a result of screening donor red cell units with anti-Kpa, reacted only very weakly with anti-Kpb and demonstrated weakened expression of various other Kell and para-Kell antigens. Family studies revealed a Kp(a+) sister with similarly weakened expressio...
