Sequence diversity of the Rh blood group system in Basques. [PDF]
Basques show specific cultural, demographic, and genetic characteristics that have placed them as an isolated and unique population within Europe, such as their non-Indo-European language, Euskara. They have historically lived along the Western Pyrenees, between Spain and France, in one of the most important European glacial refugia during the Last ...

Molecular basis of Rh blood group system in the Malaysian population [PDF]
Background: Rh molecular studies have been previously mainly conducted in Caucasians and African population. There is a limited data on the molecular basis for Rh genotypes among Asians. Aims: This study aims to characterize the Rh genes and frequency of

Evolutionary genetics of the human Rh blood group system. [PDF]
The evolutionary history of variation in the human Rh blood group system, determined by variants in the RHD and RHCE genes, has long been an unresolved puzzle in human genetics. Prior to medical treatments and interventions developed in the last century, the D-positive (RhD positive) children of D-negative (RhD negative) women were at risk for ...

The Rh blood group system and its role in alloimmunization rate among sickle cell disease and sickle thalassemia patients in Iran. [PDF]
The alloimmunization following blood transfusion can be life‐threatening. The Rh alloantibodies are one of the most common causes contributing to alloimmunization.

Molecular-genetic variance of RH blood group system within human population of Bosnia and Herzegovina. [PDF]
There are two major theories for inheritance of Rh blood group system: Fisher - Race theory and Wiener theory. Aim of this study was identifying frequency of RHDCE alleles in Bosnian - Herzegovinian population and introduction of this method in screening

Genetic Model for the Rh Blood-Group System [PDF]
Inherited quantitative aspects of the Rh blood-group system and susceptibility of Rh to the effects of independently segregating suppressor genes can be accounted for with a conjugated operon model. This assumes the existence of four operator or promotor (control) genes for these functions, while closely linked structural regions determine the ...

DAK, a new low‐incidence antigen in the Rh blood group system [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Some low‐incidence antigens in the Rh blood group system (e.g., VS, Rh32, FPTT) are expressed by more than one Rh complex. We describe a new low‐incidence antigen that is present on RBCs with the partial D phenotypes, DIIIa or DOL, on N RBCs and on one example of STEM+S RBCs.STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Standard hemagglutination testing was

Rh blood-group system and the importance of its research in the population of Vojvodina [PDF]
We examined the Rh blood group system in blood donors. Rh factor is tested on a sample of 300,000 donors, while the testing of Rh phenotype was performed on 4000 blood donors.

Review: the Rh blood group system: an historical calendar [PDF]
The question as to who discovered the Rh blood group system has been vigorously debated for many years. In 1939, Levine and Stetson correctly described the etiology of a case of HDN. They did not give a name to the causative antibody in the serum of Mary

An Observational Study to Analyse the Association of the ABO and Rh Blood Group Systems With Bronchial Asthma [PDF]
Background ABO blood group types are hereditary factors that have been shown to affect the blood levels of many antigens and proteins. Some blood groups have surprisingly been shown to be associated with some specific diseases, probably due to yet ...
