Polymorphic analysis of the Lutheran blood group system in Chinese.
The Lutheran blood group is a complex system consisting of 19 identified antigens. It belongs to the immunoglobulin family of receptors and adhesion molecules. Four pairs of antigens show allelic relationships while other antigens are of very high incidence. In this study, we performed genetic polymorphism analyses by molecular techniques of the Lutheran blood group system in Chinese subjects. ...
متن کاملAnti-Lu14: a Lutheran antibody defining the product of an allele at the Lu8 blood group locus.
A 'new' Lutheran-related antibody, named anti-Lu14, reacts with approximately 2.4% of random bloods. Red cells of the rare Lu:-8 phenotype are Lu:14. The data indicate, with a high probability, that the Lu 14 antigen is a product of an allele of Lu8 and that Lu14 and Lu8 comprise a third pair of alleles at the Lutheran locus. Red cells of the original Sw (a+) propositus are Lu:14. By coincidenc...
متن کاملLaminin-10 and Lutheran blood group glycoproteins in adhesion of human endothelial cells.
Laminin alpha5-chain, a constituent of laminins-10 and -11, is expressed in endothelial basement membranes. In this study we evaluated the roles of alpha5 laminins and Lutheran blood group glycoproteins (Lu), recently identified receptors of the laminin alpha5-chain, in the adhesion of human dermal microvascular and pulmonary artery endothelial cells. Field emission scanning electron microscopy...
متن کاملUpdate on HCV genotypes among Iranian blood donors
Abstract Background and Objectives Hepatitis C (HCV) infection is one of the main causes of chronic hepatitis diseases all over the world. HCV is a transfusion transmitted virus and a serious threat to general health. HCV genotyping has an important role in tracing routes of infection. This study aimed at investigating the changes in distribution pattern of HCV genotypes among Iranian blood d...
متن کاملTHE Rh BLOOD GROUP SYSTEM
T he Rh blood group system is one of the most polymorphic and antigenic blood group systems. It is second only to ABO in importance in blood transfusion and is well known as a primary cause of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN). The principal antigen is D, and the terms Rh positive and Rh negative refer to the presence or absence of D antigen. Caucasians of European extraction ha...
