Abstract excerpt
IgG alloantibodies to polymorphic platelet glycoproteins (GPs) are known to be responsible for severe thrombocytopenia in the neonate and after transfusion. Platelet GPIIIa can have either a leucine or a proline at residue 33. The most immunogenic platelet alloantigen in thrombocytopenia is the leucine 33 form of GPIIIa. Here, we have generated human monoclonal antibody fragments that are specific for the leucine...
