Hemocyte lysis is a measure of the ability of red blood cells to rupture in different concentrations of hypotonic saline solution.

The consequence of immune system disorder is the formation of abnormal antibodies against antigens present on red blood cells. This disorder causes autoimmune hemolytic anemia, which is also an autoimmune disease.

In autoimmune hemolytic anemia, the bone marrow does not produce enough red blood cells, or the red blood cells do not function properly. As a result, the body does not receive enough oxygen, causing the person to feel tired or short of breath.

Autoimmune hemolytic anemia is a dangerous disease with about 50% of cases having unknown causes. In addition, the disease can also occur in combination with systemic lupus erythematosus, chronic lymphocytic leukemia or systemic lymphoma.

Cold weather can be especially troublesome if you have a rare blood disorder called cold agglutinin disease. Cold agglutinin disease is a form of autoimmune hemolytic anemia that occurs when your blood temperature drops below normal body temperature.

Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is a group of disorders characterized by the presence of autoantibodies that bind to the patient's own red blood cells, leading to premature red blood cell destruction (hemolysis).
