ABSTRACT

Introduction: The pathogenesis of autoimmune hemolytic anemia is a complex process in which many elements play an essential role and have an impact on the great clinical heterogeneity of the disease, but the mechanisms involved in its induction are largely unknown.
Objective: To explain the main mechanisms proposed in the initiation and occurrence of autoimmune hemolytic anemia and its contribution to the pathophysiology of the disease.
Methods: A review of the literature, in English and Spanish languages, of articles published in the last 10 years on proposed mechanisms in the initiation of autoimmune hemolytic anemia was carried out.
Analysis and synthesis of information: Proposed mechanisms for the induction of autoimmunity against erythrocytes include molecular mimicry between endogenous and exogenous antigens, deregulated processing of autoantigens influenced by acquired factors, and B and T cells dysfunction.
Conclusions: The proposed mechanisms in the occurrence of autoimmune hemolytic anemia provide valuable information to improve the understanding of the mechanisms involved and underline the complexity of the phenomena involved in the loss of tolerance towards autologous erythrocytes and the delicate balance between genetic and environmental factors.
