  • Title: Long-term response in a patient with ITP following low dose anti-D immunoglobulin therapy.
    Author: Smith NA, Chakraverty RK, Obeid D, Boughton BJ.
    Journal: Autoimmunity; 1989; 4(1-2):115-7. PubMed ID: 2562380.
    Abstract:
    A patient with chronic ITP relapsed after conventional therapy but following an infusion with low dose anti D (Rho) immunoglobulin, she entered a remission which has now lasted 10 months. This is difficult to explain on the basis of long term macrophage Fc receptor blockade and suggests an alternative mechanism of action.
