|
Roughly what % or the population has the "M" antigen?
|
About 75%
78% white 70% black |
|
What % of the population has the "s" antigen?
|
89% white
97% black |
|
How difficult would it be to find compatible cells for someone with an ANti-m?
|
It would be relatively easy because a great portion of the population has the M antigen; then, approximately 25% would be compatable. 1 in 4 units would be compatable
|
|
How difficult would it be fto find compatible cells for someone with an Anti-s?
|
Pretty difficult because only 10% of the white and 3% fo the black population lacks this antigen. only 1 in 10 units would be compatible.
|
|
Which of the P blood group antigens are "high-frequency" antigens?
|
P, and Pk
|
|
Which P group antibody would you expect to find most frequently in the clinical lab?
|
Anti-P1
|
|
What is Donath Landsteiner and why is it called an autoantibody?
|
Anti-P antibody, hemolytic IgG that usually is encountered in patients with Paroxysmal Cold Hemoglobinuria (PCH). It is called an autoantibody, because it turns into an antibody for a self-antigen. IgG autoanti-P binds to P positive RBC's and activates complement at low temperatures, causing hemolysis to occur at warmer temps.
|
|
Would you expect Anti-I to be a cause of HDN?
|
No, IgM's cannot cross the placenta and newborns are I neg
|
|
Why are antibodies to k, Kpb and Jsb rarely found?
|
These are high frequency antigens; the corresponding antibody will be rarely found
|
|
Why is it uncommon to find antibodies to Kpa and Jsa?
|
These antigens are co-dominant alleles on closely linked loci with Kpb and Jsb; they produce low frequencies.
|
|
Would it be difficult to find donor cells for a patient with Anti-Kpa and Anti-Jsa?
|
No, it would be easy; donor units possessing these antigens are uncommon.
|
|
How common is the Lub antigen?
|
100% of the population have this antigen
|
|
Name 2 reasons why anti-Lua is not associated with HDN.
|
-IgM
-poorly developed at birth |
|
List the blood groups that would show stronger reactions following enzyme treatment.
|
-Kidd
-P -Ii -Lewis -Rh(not D) |
|
List the blood groups that would show weaker or missing reactions following enzyme treatment.
|
-Duffy
-Xga -MN |
|
List the blood groups that would show no change following enzyme treatment.
|
-Lutheran
-Kell -'D' |
|
What blood groups show variable reactivity following enzyme treatment.
|
-S
-s -U |
|
-IgG
-Produced in response to antigen exposure -Ab agglutinate optimally in IAT -Ab do not bind complement -TRX/HDN -Anti-K is the most common antibody |
Kell blood group
|
|
-Agglutination reactions are best observed in IAT
-Antibodies do not bind complement -TRX -Can show dosage -Anti-Fya is more common than anti-Fyb |
Duffy blood group
|
|
-Does show dosage
-Binds complement -Produced through antigen exposure -Antibodies do not store well -Phenotype frequencies tend to vary among the population. |
Kidd blood group
|
|
Can be present without RBC stimulation
-IgM and IgG -Has characteristic mixed-field pattern of agglutination -Mild cases of HDN |
Anti-Lua
