Abstract Genomics is affecting all areas of medicine. In transfusion medicine, DNA-based genotyping is being used as an alternative to serological antibody-based methods to determine blood groups for matching donor to recipient. Most antigenic polymorphisms are due to single nucleotide polymorphism changes in the respective genes, and

Relationship of Fingerprints with Blood Group and Sex—A Comparative Study [PDF]
Background: Fingerprints are a unique pattern of friction ridges, which remain constant throughout one’s lifetime. Several studies have shown an association between fingerprint patterns, blood groups, and gender.

Blood Group A Enhances SARS-CoV-2 Infection
Among risk factors for SARS-CoV-2, ABO(H) blood group antigens have been one of the most recognized predictors of infection. However, the mechanisms whereby ABO(H) antigens influence susceptibility to COVID-19 remain incompletely understood. The receptor

ABO blood group and COVID‐19: a review on behalf of the ISBT COVID‐19 Working Group
Growing evidence suggests that ABO blood group may play a role in the immunopathogenesis of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection, with group O individuals less likely to test positive and group A conferring a higher susceptibility to infection and propensity to severe ...

The SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain preferentially recognizes blood group A
Key Points The RBD of SARS-CoV-2 shares sequence similarity with an ancient lectin family known to bind blood group antigens. SARS-CoV-2 RBD binds the blood group A expressed on respiratory epithelial cells, directly linking blood group A and SARS-CoV-2.

Generation of the human erythroblast-derived iPSC line UBTi001-A
We performed reprogramming of human erythroblasts derived from CD34+ hematopoietic stem / progenitor cells of a healthy donor. CD34+ cells were differentiated in-vitro into a pure population of CD36+ erythroblasts and nucleofected with four episomal ...

Relationship between the ABO Blood Group and the COVID-19 Susceptibility
The novel coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) has been spreading around the world rapidly and declared as a pandemic by WHO. Here, we compared the ABO blood group distribution in 2,173 patients with COVID-19 confirmed by SARS-CoV-2 test from three ...
