Rotavirus P[8] Infections in Persons with Secretor and Nonsecretor Phenotypes, Tunisia [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2015 To determine whether rotavirus infections are linked to secretor status, we studied samples from children in Tunisia with gastroenteritis. We phenotyped saliva for human blood group antigens and tested feces for rotavirus. Rotavirus was detected in 32/114 patients.

Mucosal Blood Group Antigen Expression Profiles and HIV Infections: A Study among Female Sex Workers in Kenya. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The ABO blood group antigens are carbohydrate moieties expressed on human red blood cells however; these antigens can also be expressed on some other cells particularly the surface of epithelial cells and may be found in mucosal secretions. In many human

Norovirus Infection and Disease in an Ecuadorian Birth Cohort: Association of Certain Norovirus Genotypes With Host FUT2 Secretor Status. [PDF]
, 2015 BACKGROUND: Although norovirus is the most common cause of gastroenteritis, there are few data on the community incidence of infection/disease or the patterns of acquired immunity or innate resistance to norovirus.

Maternal Breast Milk Secretor Phenotype Does Not Affect Infant Susceptibility to Rotavirus Diarrhea
Open Forum Infectious Diseases, 2023 Abstract Breast milk secretor status is associated with antibody seroconversion to oral rotavirus vaccination. Here, we were unable to detect a similar impact on risk of infant rotavirus diarrhea or vaccine efficacy through 2 years of life, underscoring limitations of immunogenicity assessment alone in evaluation of oral rotavirus ...

The importance of testing for secretor status of ABH antigens: A case series
Iraqi Journal of Hematology, 2021 While simple serological tests such as forward and reverse grouping can help identify rare phenotypes, their Confirmation is to be done with a battery of other serological tests including adsorption elution and nonserological tests such as saliva testing

Host genetic factors affect susceptibility to norovirus infections in Burkina Faso. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Norovirus (NoV) constitutes the second most common viral pathogen causing pediatric diarrhea after rotavirus. In Africa, diarrhea is a major health problem in children, and yet few studies have been performed regarding NoV. The association of histo-blood

Detection of rare blood group Ax phenotype in blood donor
International Journal of Advanced Medical and Health Research, 2021 Background: Karl Landsteiner discovered ABO blood group system in early 20th century, but still, uncertainty remains in immune-hematology while detection of ABO subgroups or weaker variants.

Journal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine, 2022 Histo-blood group antigens are inherited polymorphic glycans expressed on mucosal epithelial cell surfaces and shed in secretions. They act as receptors for gastrointestinal pathogens. Those expressing these antigens are categorized as secretors and have

Human Milk Oligosaccharides: A Comprehensive Review towards Metabolomics
Children, 2021 Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are the third most represented component in breast milk. They serve not only as prebiotics but they exert a protective role against some significant neonatal pathologies such as necrotizing enterocolitis.
