An autoantigen is usually a normal protein or complex of proteins (and sometimes DNA or RNA) that is recognized by the immune system of patients suffering from a specific autoimmune disease. These antigens should, under normal conditions, not be the target of the immune system, but, due to mainly genetic and environmental factors, the normal immunological tolerance for such an antigen has been lost in these patients.
No, type B blood does not have A antigens. Type B blood has B antigens.
Tissue Antigens was created in 1971.
Antigens, by definition, cause the body to produce antibodies which act against them. You inherit certain antigens which are on your red blood cells. Sometimes these antigens are absent from your RBC. If you are type B, you have B antigens. Type A has A antigens, AB has AB antigens and type O has no antigens. If you are type AB, you can receive AB blood from some one else.
All cells produce antigens, or cell surface markers. The only question is whether the antigens are self antigens which means they belong in the body or they're foreign antigens which means they are an invading bacteria or virus (or a cancerous cell).
Examples of antigens are poisons, splinters and microorganisms.
Processed fragments of protein antigens displayed on surfaces of body cells.
B antigens, antibodies to A, and Rh antigens
Blood antigens :D
The blood antigens A, B, and Rh are located on the membrane of the red blood cell. These antigens are hereditary.
The blood type notation A Rh- indicates which antigens and antibodies are present in the blood. A indicates there are A antigens. Rh+ indicates there are Rh antigens. B antibodies. If there are A and Rh antigens but no B antigens, the antibodies in the blood plasma are B antibodies.
Te four basic blood types are O, A, B and AB. They are named for the types of antigens they carry. O has no antigens, A has A antigens, B has B antigens and AB carries both.
