Other Blood Groups System Flashcards
Four blood groups capable in producing cold agglutinins
Lewis, I, P, MNSs
The carbohydrates blood groups are Lewis, I, and P, and these are …
explain, ot encoded by their gene directly, thus the gene encode specific glycosyltransferases with the addition of sugars to precursor
This is an ABs associated with decreased RBC survival. Transfusion reaction, HDN
Clinically significant
ABs do not cause red cell destruction
Not clinically significant
Cold reacting ABs, agglutination best observed @?
Below RT
Agglutination best observed at 37 degree celsius
Warm reacting antibodies
Who immunize rabbits with human RBCs
Landsteiner and Levine
Upon immunizing rabbits with human RBCs, waht antibodies recovered from these rabbits sera?
Anti M and Anti N
It is an antibody high prevalence antigen
U antigen
In whites, the common haplotypes were calculated to appear in the following order of relative frequency:
Ns, Ms, MS, NS
Important markers of MNSsU
Paternity testing
Antigen synthesise in GPA
M and N
What position of amino acid sequence does M and N antigen differs
1 and 5
M & N is easily degraded by?
Ficin, papain, bromelin,
Less common enzymes: pronase and trypsin
S and s antigen is expressed in?
GLYCOPHORIN B
S and s antigens, differs in amino acid sequence in what position?
29, Met and Thr
S and s antigen is Less easily degraded by enzymes because the antigens are located farther down the glycoprotein? T/F
TRUE
When phenotype S and s expressed, they cannot expressed U phenotype? T/F
FALSE
What phenotype does certain individual have to create high resistance of P. Falciparum
M-N-
M-N- create high resistance of?
P. Falciparum
What is dosage effect?
Explain
Ss antigen is less easily destroyed by enzymes? T/F
True
Enzymes that does not destroy Ss activity?
Trypsin, DTT, AET, Chloroquine, Glycine acid EDTA.
2-aminoethylisothiouronium bromide
Enzymes that does destroy Ss activity?
Ficin, Papain, Bromelin, Chymotrypsin, Pronase
This is always present when S and S are inherited
U antigen
U antigen is found in?
GPB
Most naturally occuring immunoglobulins in anti M and Anti N
IgM
Ph dependent reacting best at
6.5
Anti M and Anti N is cold reactive saline agglutinins T/F
True
Anti M and Anti N can binds to complement? T/F
FALSE
Most examples of immunoglobulins in Ss antibodiies is
IgG
Anti S and anti s can bind to complement?
True
3 phenotypes lacks GPA and GPB
En (a-), U Phenotype, Mk phenotype
What phenotype does indivuduals appears to be M-N- and produce anti Ena
En(a-)
RBCs of Mk phenotype types as?
M-N-S-s-U-En(a-)-Wr(a-b-)
RBCS in U phenotype types as?
S-s-U
What phenotype is deficient in GPB
U phenotype
Anti-Tja also known as
Anti-PP1Pk
The RBC Antigen of P blood group exist as
Glycosphingolipids
Meaning when not readily available at birth
That means, these antigens will only be present on the surface of RBCs with the presence of glycosyltransferases
Consists of P and P1 antigens
P1
Consist only P antigens and Lacks P1 antigen
P2 antigen
Enzymes that does not affect P blood group
Ficin, papain, DTT, chloroquine and glycine acid edta
P and Pk have also been found in plasma as
Glycosphingolipids
P and Pk have also been found in plasma as glycosphingolipids and glycoproteins in?
Hyatid cysts fluid, esp. in Echinococcus granulosus
Found on fetal red cells as early as 12 weeks, but it weakens with gestational age
P1 antigen
P1 antigen is Poorly expressed at birth and may take up to how many years to be fully expressed?
7 years
Why p1 detoriates rapidly on storage
Sensitive in temperature variation
P1-like antigen has been found in plasma and
Dropping of pigeons and turtle doves
P1 substance has been identified in hydatid cyst fluid of Echinococcus granulosus, extracts of
Lumbricoides terrestis
