The P blood group system was introduced in 1927 by Landsteiner and Levine. About 75% of the population possesses P1 phenotype. P2 simply implies P1 negative and there is no P2 antigen. Individuals with P2 may have anti-P1 antibodies in there serum are cold-reacting antibodies which are clinically insignificant and occasionally active at 20°C or higher temperatures. However, in certain cases, anti-P1 is clinically significant and may cause acute intravascular hemolytic transfusion reactions. Our case report confirms the complexity and difficulty in the diagnosis of anti-P1. In India, very few cases are reported regarding clinical significant anti-P1. Here, we report a case of IgM type of antibody anti-P1 which was reactive at 37°C and AHG phase in a 66-year-old female planned for Whipple's surgery, who had grouping discrepancies in reverse typing and incompatibility during routine crossmatch.

Background: Erythrocyte alloantibodies and autoantibodies complicate transfusion. However, the prevalence of erythrocyte alloimmunization and autoimmunization has not been estimated in the Chinese pediatric population. Therefore, we investigated the prevalence of erythrocyte alloimmunization and autoimmunization in the Chinese pediatric population with the aim of developing a reasonable transfusion management policy in children from China.

The histo-blood group antigens P, P1 and Pk are a closely related set of glycosphingolipid structures expressed by red blood cells and other tissues. None of these three characters is expressed on p cells, a null phenotype that arises in the context of homozygous mutation of the A4GALT gene. Subjects with p phenotype spontaneously develop a natural alloantibody named anti-PP1Pk, which is a mixture of IgG and IgM against P1, P and Pk.

Background: Since the beginning of COVID-19 pandemic, many associated factors have been investigated to clarify the susceptibility and severity among the affected individuals. Biological markers can play an important role in identification of individual susceptibility to such pandemic. Growing evidence suggest the influence of different blood group systems on susceptibility to COVID-19 virus, with a particular blood type conferring selection advantage.

Background: Molecular mimicry between (Hp) and the host components resulting in induction of cross-reacting antibodies has been suggested as accessory mechanism in the development of coronary heart disease (CHD). A potential target for antibodies induced during Hp infection by the components of these bacteria might be amino acid sequence TVLLPVIFF (P1) of tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR), which is exposed on vascular endothelium and immunocompetent cells, driving inflammation.
Aim: To examine whether anti-P1 IgG are induced during Hp infection in CHD patients.
