Even though instances of fetal, maternal ABO, incompatibility are common, severe hemolytic disease due to ABO incompatibility is rare. Which of the following best explains this difference? A) ABO incompatibility causes extensive extra medullary hematopoiesis B) antibodies against ABO antigens do not bind complement C) the maternal immune system is tolerant to ABO ANTIGENS D) most anti- A or anti- B antibodies are of IgM type and do not cross the placenta E) the presence of concurrent Rh incompatibility decreases the immunogenicity of erythrocytes

Genetic factors contribute to the development of IgE-mediated allergic disease. Genetic studies have identified more than 40 genes that show allelic variations associated with the development of allergic asthma and atopic dermatitis, as well as the predisposition to develop allergies to particular antigens. Among these genes are several that implicate CD4 T cell responses in the development of these allergic diseases. Name two genes (or gene clusters) associated with atopic diseases that indicate a central role for CD4 T cells in these diseases.
