  1. 1. Molecular Genetic Studies of the Blood Group ABO Locus in Man

    Author : Martin L Olsson; Avdelningen för hematologi och transfusionsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; chi sequence; recombination; population studies; blood group serology; erythrocyte; blood transfusion; sequencing; DNA; PCR; genomic; Blood group ABO; allele; Immunology; serology; transplantation; Immunologi; serologi; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik;

    Abstract : The ABO blood group system is undoubtedly the most important genetic and phenotypic marker in clinical transfusion medicine. The A and B determinants are immunodominant, terminally located carbohydrate residues of glycoconjugates on erythrocytes and other cell surfaces. READ MORE

  2. 2. Genetic Characterisation of Human ABO Blood Group Variants with a Focus on Subgroups and Hybrid Alleles

    Author : Bahram Hosseini Maaf; Avdelningen för hematologi och transfusionsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; glycosyltransferase; SNP; computer modelling; ABO genotyping; Immunology; serology; hybrid; Blood group ABO; transplantation; subgroup; Immunologi; serologi; rare O allele;

    Abstract : ABO is the most important blood group system in transfusion medicine and transplantation immunology. The ABO blood groups differ by the presence or absence of antigens on RBCs and antibodies in plasma. Accurate determination of ABO status is critical. Genomic typing can increase the precision of blood group determination in complicated cases, e. READ MORE

  3. 3. Molecular genetics of human carbohydrate defined blood groups. Studies of the ABO and P blood group systems

    Author : Rudi Steffensen; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ABO blood group system; P blood group system; carbohydrate antigen; DNA; sequencing; populations studies; expression studies;

    Abstract : The aim of this study was to explore the molecular genetics of the carbohydrate defined blood group ABO and P systems.The blood group ABO system is the clinically most significant system in transfusion medicine. Using modern molecular biology, a number of the ABO alleles have been characterized. READ MORE

  4. 4. Genetic polymorphism and breast cancer risk in young women

    Author : Malin Bergman; Helena Jernström; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among women in the western world. Although the disease is rare in young women, it is one of the main causes of death at young age. The early onset breast cancer has demonstrated more aggressive pathological features than the late onset disease. READ MORE
