The present invention relates to methods, combinations and pharmaceutical compositions for supplying a blood source from a donor source with a mis-matched blood type, or potentially a mis-matched blood type, to a recipient, using, inter alia, an effective amount of a nanoparticle comprising a) an inner core comprising a non-cellular material, and b) an outer surface comprising a cellular membrane derived from a red blood cell, the cellular membrane of the nanoparticle comprising a blood type antigen that exists on the red blood cell from the donor source, but is missing or potentially missing on red blood cells of the recipient.
