The most effective method for mapping N6-methyladenosine (mA) is mA RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeRIP-seq). The quality of MeRIP-seq relies on various factors, with the anti-mA antibody being a crucial determinant. However, comprehensive research on anti-mA antibody selection and optimal concentrations for different tissues has been limited.

Background: Mycobacterium abscessus is a highly drug-resistant non-tuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) for which treatment is limited by the lack of active oral antimycobacterials and frequent adverse reactions. Epetraborole is a novel oral, boron-containing antimicrobial that inhibits bacterial leucyl-tRNA synthetase, an essential enzyme in protein synthesis, and has been shown to have anti-M. abscessus activity in preclinical studies.

Red blood cell (RBC) alloimmunization and antibodies formation against non-self antigens on red cells may occur after blood transfusion, pregnancies or other exposures. The RBC alloimmunization rate varies from 2% to 6% according to recent studies. The antibody screen is performed to identify or confirm the presence of antibodies in patient's serum or plasma, as a preoperative or pretransfusion test.

The anti-M antibody is a cold, naturally occurring immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibody that is generally considered clinically insignificant and often overlooked in transfusion practices and assessments of patients at risk for hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN). However, the presence of an IgG component in this case renders the antibody clinically significant, underscoring the necessity for proper serologic testing during prenatal evaluations. We present a case involving an anti-M antibody with an IgG component to highlight the critical importance of thorough serologic testing during prenatal testing.

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.
