---|---|---|---|---|---|
The most immunogenic of all the blood group antigens | ABO blood group antigens
🗑
|
||||
Describe the physiological functions of ABO blood group antigens | Unknown
🗑
|
||||
This ABO phenotype has been linked with stomach ulcers | Group O
🗑
|
||||
Individuals with this blood type tend to have lower levels of the von Willebrand Factor (vWF) | O
🗑
|
||||
This ABO phenotype has been linked with gastric cancer | more common in group A individuals
🗑
|
||||
most common ABO blood type in most populations | O
🗑
|
||||
Antibody isotype for ABO antibodies | For type O = IgG; for A and B= IgM
🗑
|
||||
Describe Antibody reactivity for ABO blood group antibodies | Capable of hemolysis
Anti-A and anti-B bind to RBCs and activate the complement cascade, which lyses the RBCs while they are still in the circulation (intravascular hemolysis).
🗑
|
||||
Describe Transfusion reaction involving ABO antibodies | Typically causes an acute hemolytic transfusion reaction
🗑
|
||||
Describe severity of cases of Hemolytic disease of the newborn involving ABO system | No or mild disease
🗑
|
||||
He discovered the first blood group system, ABO, and earned a Nobel Prize. | Austrian scientist, Karl Landsteiner
🗑
|
||||
Describe the differences between A1 and A2 RBC phenotypes | A1 red cells express about 5 times more A antigen than A2 red cells
🗑
|
||||
How/why do ABO antibodies occur? | ABO antibody production is stimulated when the immune system encounters the "missing" ABO blood group antigens in foods or in micro-organisms.
🗑
|
||||
Immunodominant sugar for blood group A | N-acetylgalactosamine
🗑
|
||||
Immunodominant sugar for blood group B | D-galactose
🗑
|
||||
Are ABO antigens expressed on other tissues? | expressed on a wide variety of human tissues and are present on most epithelial and endothelial cells.
🗑
|
||||
In individuals who are "secretors", a soluble form of the ABO blood group antigens is found in saliva and in all bodily fluids except for this. | CSF
🗑
|
||||
ABO antibodies are of major clinical significance for two reasons: | they are naturally occurring and are found universally, and, they are highly reactive.
🗑
|
||||
ABO related Hemolytic disease of the newborn tends to occur almost exclusively in moms with this blood type? Why? | Group O mothers with A or B baby because anti-A and anti-B formed in group O individuals tend to be of the IgG type (can cross placenta), whereas the anti-A and anti-B found in the serum of group B and A moms, is IgM
🗑
|
||||
For A/B antigen synthesis to occur, a precursor called the_____ antigen must be present | H(FUT1)
🗑
|
||||
In saliva and other bodily secretions, the enzyme that synthesizes the H antigen is encoded by the __locus (FUT2). | Se
🗑
|
||||
The ABO locus is located on chromosome | The ABO locus is located on chromosome 9 at 9q34.1-q34.2.
🗑
