The Impact of Human Platelet Antigen Allele on Antiplatelet Antibodies and Cryoglobulins in Patients With Primary Immune Thrombocytopenia and Hepatitis C Virus-Associated Immune Thrombocytopenia

Abstract: Background Human platelet antigens (HPAs) are alloantigens for antiplatelet alloantibodies and associated with the risk of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). However, few studies have investigated associations among HPAs, antiplatelet autoantibodies, and cryoglobulins. Methods We enrolled 43 patients with primary ITP, 47 with hepatitis C virus-associated ITP (HCV-ITP), 21 with hepatitis B virus-associated ITP (HBV-ITP), 25 controls with HCV, and 1013 normal controls including HPA data of 998 Taiw… Show more

“…Antiviral therapy aimed at eradicating HCV can improve liver function and potentially lead to an improvement in platelet counts. Additionally, in cases where thrombocytopenia is severe, healthcare providers might consider interventions to increase platelet counts, such as platelet transfusions or medications that stimulate platelet production [15].…”
