What is the importance of the use of a common blood type in blood transfusions?
Blood types are defined by cell surface markers called antigens. For example, if you have the "A" antigen then you have type A blood. The antigens act as a backstage pass in your body giving it permission to be there. If you introduce a blood type that has different antigens than those occurring naturally on your blood cells, then those different antigens will be perceived as "foreign" by your immune system. That means that your immune system will treat the different blood type like it would an infection. Antibodies will bind to the foreign antigens causing them to clump (agglutinate) which can clog or block smaller blood vessels. This is especially dangerous in the kidney and can lead to renal failure and possibly death.
