“…Other confirmatory evidence of this was previously found in the observations that complement was not fixed or absorbed during cold hemagglutination (2), that the hemolysis occurred at 40 C. and did not occur at 370 C., and that intense hemolysis could be produced in the short period of 1 minute.…”

“…Little attention has been directed toward this problem in the work on cold hemagglutination (2). Nevertheless, cases of acute or chronic hemolytic anemia and paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria associated with potent cold hemagglutination have been described.…”

“…Cold haemagglutinins are found in human sera in a wide range of pathological conditions, including acquired haemolytic anaemia, atypical pneumonia, some acute bacterial infections, cirrhosis of the liver, trypansomiasis (Stats and Wasserman, 1943), lymphoma, and the tropical hypergamma-globulinaemia occurring in the peoples of the lowland areas of New Cuinea and New Britain (Curtain, Baumgarten, Kidson, Corman, Rodrigue, Champness and Cajdusek, 1965). Cordon (1953) demonstrated that cold haemagglutinins eluted from the erythrocytes in a case of acquired haemolytic anaemia were 19S macroglobulins.…”

Summary A γ1 macroglobulin with cold haemagglutinating activity of the anti‐I type was localised by the fluorescent antibody technique in the bone marrow plasma cells and their precursors in a patient suffering from lymphoma. No localization occurred in the “naked” lymphocytes whose presence in the marrow gave rise to a diagnosis of lymphoma. The plasma cells containing the macroglobulin appeared to be morphologically identical to those containing normal 7S γ2‐globulin, and in no case was the presence of both proteins observed in the same cell.

“…Their occurrence even in these conditions is still sufficiently rare that only individual cases or very small groups of cases have been reported by any single observer. The only infectious disease in which autoagglutinins have been found with any great regularity is trypanosomiasis (11) The literature concerning the occurrence of cold agglutinins, their nature and properties, and the methods for detecting them have been reviewed recently (12). Very few reports are available of extensive surveys of the occurrence of cold agglutinins in various infectious diseases with the use of standardized quantitative methods.…”
