Objective To detect and determine the specificity of platelet-reactive antibodies in patients who were refractory to platelet transfusions.Methods Serum samples from 48 patients who were refractory to platelet transfusions were screened with MACE for platelet-reactive antibodies.Specificity of platelet alloantibodies was determined with PAK12 and MAIPA.Results Platelet-reactive antibodies were detected in the serum of 50% PTR patients(24/48).The incidence of HLA antibodies was 39.6%(19/48),accounting for 79.2% of serum with platelete alloantibodies.The HPA alloantibodies were found in 29.2%(14/48)serum,of which,64.3%(9/14)occurred together with anti-HLA.The following platelet-specific antibodies were identified:anti-HPA-3a(n=2),anti-HPA-5b(n=1),anti-HPA-5a(n=1),anti-HPA-2b(n=1),anti-HPA-4b(n=1).Of the 14 serum with HPA antibodies,78.6%(11/14)contained panreactive anibodies against platelet glycoprotein(GP)Ⅱb/Ⅲa,GPⅠa/Ⅱa,and/or GPⅠb/Ⅸ.Platelet-reactive antibodies were detected more in female(16/29)than in male(8/19)with a frequency of 55.2%,42.1%,respectively,but there was no statistical significant difference.Conclusion The platelet-specific antibody in PTR patients are not as rare as previous thought although alloantibodies are predominantly anti-HLA.Antibody specificities in Chinese PTR patients are different from those observed in Caucasians,in whom anti-HPA-5b and-1b are the most prevalent specificity.The most prevalent platelet-specific antibodies are anti-HPA-3 and anti-HPA-5 while anti-HPA-4b and anti-HPA-2b are also detected.
