“…Production of autoantibodies has been reported in a number of different infectious diseases (Abu-Shakra & Schoenfeld 1991), and autoantibodies against RBC have been reported in AIDS (Gupta & Licorish 1984), tuberculosis (Murray 1978), trypanosomiasis (Assoku & Gardiner 1989), viral lymphocytic choriomeningitis (Vella & Pfau 1991) and babesiosis (Matsuda, Hasegawa & Kozaki 1987). Consistent with these findings, this report shows that antibodies can be eluted from RBC of mice infected with S. mansoni.…”

“…In other chronic infectious diseases, anti-RBC antibodies have been suggested or shown to play a role in anaemia by participating in, depending on the isotype of antibody induced, either complement or macrophagedependent RBC elimination (Gupta & Licorish 1984, Murray 1978, Assoku & Gardiner 1989, Vella & Pfau 1991, Matsuda, Hasegawa & Kozaki 1987. Elucidation of the role for the immune system in anaemia is complicated by the fact that anti-RBC antibodies contribute to normal RBC management (Kay 1991).…”
