Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The HLAs expressed in tissue transplanted from a genetically different individual or species may be recognized as non-self molecules by the host’s dendritic cells. If this occurs, the dendritic cells will process and present the foreign HLAs to the host’s helper T cells and cytotoxic T cells, thereby activating them.

Detailed explanation-2: -During an ABO incompatibility reaction, the red blood cells inside your circulatory system break down.
