Mechanisms of destruction of human Rhesus sensitized red blood cells.
In order to determine the phagocytosis of human anti-D coated red cells we adopted a quantitative technique for its measurement using human erythrocytes labelled with 51Cr-chromate to support the assumption that erythrophagocytosis is one of the main mechanisms by which IgG-anti-D-antibody coated red cells are destroyed.
