serum of Mrs. Kidd
The antibodies for Kidd was detected in the serum of the mother who had an infant with ________
HDFN
Antibody name for Kidd blood group
Anti-Jk^a
In what year wa the atithetical partner of Jk^a was found?
1953
High prevalence Kidd antigen;
This antigen is present on RBCs positive for __________
Jk3;
Jka and Jkb
Significant cause of Hemolytic transfusion reactions
Kidd antibodies
These antigens are found on most populations, both well devleoped at birth
Kidd antigens
Jka can be detected of fetal RBCs at _______ weeks gestation while Jkb can be detected at _____ weeks gestation
11; 7
Kidd antigens (Jka and Jkb) are resistant to _____________ (2) and are not affected by ______________ (3)
ficin and or papain;
chloroquine, dithiothreitol, and glycine-acid EDTA
The antigens are not found on other blood cells
Kidd antigens
Location of Jk gene
Chromosome 18q12.3
Enumerate all Kidd Phenotypes (4)
Jk (a+b-)
Jk (a+b+)
Jk (a-b+)
Jk (a-b-)
Jk (a-b-) is referred to as ______ that lacks _____ antigens
null; 3
Common in filipinos, japanese, chinese, and indonesians
Jk (a-b-)
Jk (a-b-) resists lysis in
2M Urea
Jk (a-b-) is associated with a dominant gene called _______.
In (Jk) gene
Weak and demonstrates dosage. It reacts strongly with RBCs with double dose antigen.
Kidd antibodies: anti-Jka and anti-Jkb
Found in combination with other antibodies
Kidd antibodies
Stimulated by pregnancy and transfusion
Kidd Antibodies (and Kell Antibodies)
Kidd antibodie reactivity can be enhanced by using
LISS or PEG
Titers for this antibody declines in-vivo. It may go undetectable few weeks after detection.
Kidd Antibodies (Anti-Jka and anti-Jkb)
Known to be notorious for its danger in causing severe/fatal delayed HTR and some HDFN
Kidd Antibodies
Kidd antibody that is and IgG and reacts at AHG phase.
It is associated with both immediate and delayed HTRs and mild HDFN
Anti-Jk3
Discovered I Blood Group
Weiner and his coworkers
The antigen for that agglutinin in I Blood Group “I” is for
individuality
Discovered Anti-I
Marsh and Jenkins
1) A linear carbohydrate
2) A branched carbohydrate
1) i
2) I
These are formed due to activity of glycosyl transferases
I and i
True or False. I and i are both high-prevalence antigens
True
Relationship of I and i antigens
reciprocal relationship
Which among the I blood group antigens decreases during the first 18 months of life?
i
1) Infant RBCs are rich in
2) Adult RBCs are rich in
1) i
2) I
I is undetectable in
Infant RBCs
i is trace in
Adult RBCs
Adults that retain their i antigen
Adult-i
More and more adult i are present in adult RBCs compared to ________.
cord blood RBCs
I and i antigens are enhance by; resistant to:
Enhanced by Ficin and Papain
Resistant to Dithiothreitol and Glycine-acid EDTA
Precursor for the synthesis of ABO and Lewis antigens
I and i antigens
Defines the “i” antigen activity
at least two repeating N-acetyllactosamine units in linear form
Associated with branched form of “i” antigen
I antigen activity
Encodes the N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase that adds N-acetylglucosamine (G1cNAc) to form the branches
IGnt gene (GCNT2)
Found on chromsome 6p24
IGnt gene (GCNT2)
This can alter the expression of I and i antigens
disease
Conditions where i antigen expression is increased (AHM STS PC)
Acute Leukemia
Hypoplastic anemia
Megaloblastic anemia
Sideroblastic anemia
Thalassemia
Sickle Cell disease
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria
Chronic hemolytic anemia
Sources of I and i antigen (MLP and SSH AU O)
Membranes of leukocytes and platelets (same with Lewis: lymphocytes and platelets)
Serum, saliva, human milk, amniotic fluid, urine, and ovarian cyst fluid
