Abstract

Using human erythrocytes of known antigenic density, sensitized by ABO and Rhesus (D) alloantibodies, it is shown that K cell cytotoxicity mediated by peripheral blood lymphocytes is directly correlated with the number of IgG molecules specifically bound to the target cell surface. The lytic sensitivity of P1k but not P2 or p erythrocytes coated with anti-Tja (anti-P + P1 + Pk) antibodies, demonstrates that effector K cells are mainly triggered through the IgG ANTI-Pk component of such sera.
