Chronic Hemolytic Anemia due to Cold Agglutinins: the Mechanism of Resistance of Red Cells to C′ Hemolysis by Cold Agglutinins*

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

The red cells of patients with chronic hemolytic anemia due to cold agglutinins are agglutinated by antiglobulin serum in a nongamma reaction due to the coating of β-globulins, C′4 and C′3. The red cells of such patients are abnormally resistant to C′ hemolysis by cold agglutinin.
